3 unusual facts about Johannes Messenius


Johannes Messenius

He showed his newly acquired fidelity to the House of Vasa by a new genealogic work and by translating into Latin a number of writings against Sigismund of Poland (King Charles' brother).

Instead, he rather followed the movement of the German Jakob Ayrer.

He made a short visit in Rome in 1604, but the climate forced him to return to Germany where he possibly won an M.A. in Ingolstadt, in 1605.
