| Publisher Description: In 1638, the Jesuit, poet, preacher, and historian from Upper Swabia, Johannes Bisselius (1601-1682) published the first volume of his seasonal poem Deliciae Veris. These "Pleasures of Spring" are a subtly composed, stylistically unique cycle inspired by multiple motivations. The poem cycle is presented here for the first time in a modern edition with a German translation and insightful commentary, including an introduction to each poem. |
