Sannazaro's Latin works were published by Volpi (Padua, 1719) and Janus Bronkhusius (1728).

He was born in 1458 at Naples of a noble family of the Lomellina, said to have been of Spanish origin and to derive its name from a seat at San Nazaro near Pavia.
His father died during the boyhood of Jacopo, who was brought up at Nocera Inferiore and at San Cipriano Piacentino, whose atmosphere colored his poetry.
Sannazaro's Arcadia - coupled with the Spanish author Jorge de Montemayor's "Diana" (Los siete libros de la Diana, 1559), itself indebted to Sannazaro's work - had a profound impact on literature throughout Europe up until the middle of the seventeenth century.

Jacopo Sannazaro[yA´kOpO sAn-nAtsA´rO] Pronunciation Key, 1456?–1530, Italian humanist.
His Arcadia, a pastoral idyll in prose and verse, was the first of a long line of idylls on the subject of Arcadia, including one by Sir Philip Sidney.
Sannazaro's work Epigrammatica (3 vol.) is pungent; his Piscatoriae enlarged the literary uses of the eclogue by substituting fishermen for shepherds.

 Sannazaro   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Sannazaro, in addition to his considerable reputation as a poet of Italian, was the author of highly-regarded Latin lyrics, eclogues, and religious poetry.
These works were not collected and published until late in Sannazaro's life, and unlike the derivative edition of Arcadia (see no. 37), the Aldine editions of his Latin poetry are quite valuable to the scholar.
In the five subsequent editions, whose swift printing indicates the vogue for Sannazaro's poetry, more material was progressively added so that the 1535 edition achieves a real utility.

n5) Sannazaro's depiction of his cunning people as polar opposites is attuned to these definitions of gender.
Opico, victim of unrequited love, seeks her out to cure his malady, but Sannazaro's description of this cunning woman would leave the reader considering the malady much more pleasant than any cure she could offer.
Although his machinations are as destructive and disruptive to love as those of Sannazaro's cunning woman to the natural order, his depredations are completely undone by the clairvoyance, potions, and wisdom of "the sage Felicia," as she is repeatedly called in the text.

Although panegyrics were written in honor of Jacopo Bellini (Mantegna’s father-in-law after 1453, when he married Bellini’s daughter Nicolosia) and of Pisanello, the most admired North Italian artist of the previous generation, no other painter of his day received as many poetic and literary tributes over such a long period of time as did Mantegna.
Amongst the most noteworthy were those penned by Mantegna’s contemporary, the poet Jacopo Sannazaro, and the 16th century biographer, Giorgio Vasari.
The small panel ascribed to Jacopo (Museo Civico, Padua), was associated by Colin Eisler with the predella of the altarpiece for the Gattamelata Chapel, formerly in the Santo in Padua, which was recorded to have been signed by Jacopo and his sons (Gentile and Giovanni) in or around 1459-60 (see Fig.

In the same work, Rosalind's costuming as Ganymede and subsequent playful wooing by the love-sick Orlando also invoke a homoerotic tension that is not annulled by the closure of marriage at the end.
The tradition of elegiac lament is fused with romance in chapter 5 of Jacopo Sannazaro's (1458-1530) Arcadia (1504), where ten cowherds dance around the tomb of the shepherd Androgeo.
The barely concealed homoeroticism of this scene is fully realized in the following eclogue when Ergasto sings of Androgeo sitting in heaven between Daphnis and Meliboeus, and describes Androgeo's relation to the cowherds as having been like that of a bull to its herd.
