1631-1639

This third volume completes the Latin works of Martin Opitz. It includes writings from the last decade of Opitz’s life (1631–1639) and mainly focuses on the short epic Ratispona liberata, programmatic dedication texts for the author’s key works, and major homages and obituaries to members of the Polish nobility, which Opitz wrote from 1635 onwards, first in Thorn and later in Gdansk.
