Abstract

Die lateinische Poesie des Laurent de Premierfait. Französischer Frühhumanismus in mittelalterlicher Tradition? Because of his translations (Boccaccio, Cicero, Aristotle) as well as his commentaries on ancient classics (Statius and Terence), Laurent de Premierfait (1360/1370-1418) is considered one of the most important representatives of early French humanism.

The present article provides the first critical edition as well as a literary-historical classification and evaluation of the surviving poems. In this context, the main question concerns the medieval and humanist traditions that Laurent’s poetry follows
