      abstract = {The defeat of the Ottomans by the Holy League fleet at the  Battle of Lepanto (1571) was among the most celebrated  international events of the sixteenth century. This volume  anthologizes the work of twenty-two poets from diverse  social and geographical backgrounds who composed Latin  poetry, often modeled on Vergil and other Roman poets, in  response to the news of the battle, the largest  Mediterranean naval encounter since antiquity. Among the  poems included is the two-book 'Austrias Carmen' by the  remarkable Juan Latino, a black African former slave who  became a professor of Latin in Granada. The poems,  including two previously unpublished, are here translated  into English for the first time, along with fresh editions  of the Latin texts.},
