The “artful” hexameter and other artificial forms in the work of Jurga Valentin Winther [1578–1623]

Summary/Abstract: The article describes selected poetry by the Pomeranian diplomat Jurga Valentin Winther (1578–1623), which can be included in the inter–genre category of ‘poesis artificiosa’. The works discussed include: anagram, chronogram, acrostic, palindrome, ‘versus concordans’, emblem, labyrinth. The poetic repertoire of Winther clearly shows that while writing, he readily experimented with form, and his searches and innovations sometimes elude genology.
