Abstract

This project of research in France aims to discuss the translation of the book Inscriptionum Liber Primus, by Jean Visagier, with researchers who develop works like this, and the identification and analysis of new examples of intertextuality, referring both to the classical and to the Neo-Latin poets. Other objectives are to collect and to read additional academic literature; to access the original of Jean Visagier and coeval works; and, finally, to attend to seminars. (AU)
