Johannes Secundus (1511-1536) is a humanist and Neo-Latin Dutch erotic poet. His best known work, the Book of kisses, was notably imitated by Ronsard and his disciples. This collection consists of nineteen poems, partly imitated from Catullus and Greek anthologies, the theme of the kiss is explored in all its aspects: Dry or wet kisses, chaste or lustful, angry or soothing ... A prolific author, Jean Second produced during its brief existence of numerous writings. The book brings together the elegies of many of his works including that of Kisses. The book contains the best work of Angeriano the Eropaegnon, originally published in Florence in 1512, a book about love. Michel Tarchaniota Marullus died in 1500, probably born in Constantinople and raised in Florence, and was sponsored by Lorenzo de Medici. He wrote hymns and epigrams in imitation of Lucretius, present in this collection. Johannes Secundus is certainly the most important poet of this triad, which had an influence on Renaissance writers, but also poets until the end of the eighteenth ^century.
