More about the book
The anthology presents the works of Jan Kochanowski, a pivotal figure of the European Renaissance and a master of various literary forms, including poetry, drama, and satire. It features a diverse selection of his writings, including the complete text of his renowned humanist drama, The Dismissal of the Grecian Envoys. A highlight is the Threnodies, a poignant cycle of poems mourning his daughter Orszula, which redefined the lament genre with profound emotional depth. This collection, translated by Charles S. Kraszewski, introduces Kochanowski's brilliance to English readers for the first time.
