Abstract

Early modern occasional poetry is linked to the praise of famous people, widely practiced during the Renaissance, in several ways. However, while the authors of the early Renaissance were humanist scholars, the creation of occasional texts became part of school education during the sixteenth century. The present study examines this phenomenon by analyzing the Latin-language propemptikons written by Hungarian students studying in Wittenberg during the second part of the sixteenth century. The analysis explores the precursors of the genre and looks at how saying farewell is depicted by surveying the (similar) poetic tools linked to returning home and mourning.
