    Latin is the necessary working

    language for many early modern

    scholars. However, the very fact that

    (and the ways in which) Latin is used

    in the early modern period often has

    its own significance. Our aim is to

    reflect on a variety of aspects of the

    usage of Latin, addressing the

    technical and the theoretical issues of

    translating, appropriating, adapting,

    and rewriting Latin texts in early

    modernity and in present day early

    modern studies.

    Why and how do early moderns use Latin and the classics?

    In what ways does using Latin and the classics relate to questions of au

    How do we as scholars deal with completely or partially Latin texts?

    Can early modern latinitas be understood in terms of the emerging ide

    Can translation from the vernacular into Latin and from Latin to the v
