A number of poets took up the Latin epic in order to stage the rule of Maximilian I, aiming to portray a hero who did not just meet and exceed ancient and genre-specific ideals but also lived up to the values and challenges of his time. This study examines the strategies applied to this end and sheds light on the unique features of Maximilian heroic poetry, taking into consideration its epic predecessors.
