Helius Eobanus Hessus (6 January 1488 – 5 October 1540) was a German Latin poet and later a Lutheran humanist. He was born at Halgehausen in Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel). His family name is said to have been Koch; Eoban was the name of a local saint; Hessus indicates the land of his birth, Helius the fact that he was born on Sunday. He visited a Latin school in Frankenberg, Hesse. His teacher and travel guide was Ludwig Stippius (Christiani), confidant of Martin Luther, to whom Hessus dedicated his first idyl in 1509. In 1504 Hessus entered the university of Erfurt, and soon after his graduation was appointed rector of the school of St Severus. This post he soon lost, and spent the years 1509–1513 at the court of the bishop of Riesenburg.

  • Helius Eobanus Hessus (6 January 1488 – 5 October 1540) was a German Latin poet and later a Lutheran humanist. He was born at Halgehausen in Hesse-Kassel (or Hesse-Cassel). His family name is said to have been Koch; Eoban was the name of a local saint; Hessus indicates the land of his birth, Helius the fact that he was born on Sunday. He visited a Latin school in Frankenberg, Hesse. His teacher and travel guide was Ludwig Stippius (Christiani), confidant of Martin Luther, to whom Hessus dedicated his first idyl in 1509. In 1504 Hessus entered the university of Erfurt, and soon after his graduation was appointed rector of the school of St Severus. This post he soon lost, and spent the years 1509–1513 at the court of the bishop of Riesenburg. Returning to Erfurt, he was reduced to great straits by his drunken and irregular habits. At length (in 1517) he was appointed professor of Latin in the university. He was prominently associated with the distinguished men of the time (Johann Reuchlin, Konrad Peutinger, Ulrich von Hutten, Konrad Mutianus), and took part in the political, religious and literary quarrels of the period, finally declaring in favor of Luther and the Reformation for the rest of his life. The university was seriously weakened by the growing popularity of the new University of Wittenberg, and Hessus endeavoured (but without success) to gain a living by the practice of medicine. Through the influence of Camerarius and Melanchthon, he obtained a post at Nuremberg (1526), but, finding a regular life distasteful, he again went back to Erfurt (1533). But it was not the Erfurt he had known; his old friends were dead or had left the place; the university was deserted. A lengthy poem gained him the favor of the Landgrave of Hesse, by whom he was summoned in 1536 as professor of poetry and history to Marburg, where he died. Hessus, who was considered the foremost Latin poet of his age, was a facile verse-maker, but not a true poet. He wrote what he thought was likely to pay or secure him the favor of some important person. He wrote local, historical and military poems, idylls, epigrams and occasional pieces, collected under the title of Sylvae. His most popular works were translations of the Psalms into Latin distichs (which reached over fifty editions) and of the Iliad into hexameters. His most original poem was the Heroides in imitation of Ovid, consisting of letters from holy women, from the Virgin Mary down to Kunigunde, wife of the Emperor Henry II. His Epistolae were edited by his friend Camerarius, who also wrote his life (1553). There are later accounts of him by (1860), (1874) and C. Krause (1879); see also D. F. Strauss, Ulrich von Hutten (Eng. trans., 1874). His poems on Nuremberg and other towns have been edited with commentaries and 16th-century illustrations by and in and 's Lateinische Literaturdenkmäler des XV. u. XVI. Jahrhunderts (Berlin, 1896).

O seu nome de família dizem ter sido Koch; Eoban era o nome de um santo local; Hessus indica o lugar de seu nascimento, Helius se refere ao fato de que ele nasceu num Domingo. Em 1504 ingressou na Universidade de Erfurt, e logo depois de formado foi nomeado reitor da escola de São Severo. Não ficou muito tempo no cargo, e passou os anos de 1509 a 1513 na corte do Bispo de . De volta a Erfurt, passou por grandes dificuldades devido aos seus hábitos irregulares e ao alcoolismo. Finalmente (em 1517) foi nomeado professor de Latim na universidade. Teve notável relevância com os mais renomados nomes da sua época, tais como Johann Reuchlin, Konrad Peutinger, Ulrich von Hutten, , e tomou parte nas discussões políticas, religiosas e literárias do período, declarando-se finalmente a favor de Lutero e a Reforma Protestante para o resto de sua vida. A universidade estava seriamente enfraquecida pela crescente popularidade da nova Universidade de Wittenberg, e Hessus empreendeu (sem sucesso) ganhar a vida com a prática da Medicina. Através da influência de Camerarius e Melanchthon, obteve um posto na Universidade de Nuremberga (1526), porém, não encontrando satisfação na nova vida, voltou novamente para Erfurt (1533). Porém a cidade não era mais a mesma; seus velhos amigos haviam morrido ou deixado a cidade; a universidade estava deserta. Um longo poema proporcionou a ele os favores do , por quem foi contratado em 1536 como professor de poesia e história em Marburgo, onde ele morreu. Hessus, que foi considerado um dos mais renomados poetas latinos de sua época, era um habilidoso criador de versos, porém, não um poeta verdadeiro. Ele escreveu o que supunha que seria o suficiente para pagar ou lhe assegurar os favores de alguma pessoa importante. Ele escreveu poemas locais, históricos e militares, idílios, epigramas e peças ocasionais, compilados sob o título de Sylvae. Suas obras mais populares foram as traduções do Salmos para dísticos latinos (os quais atingiram mais de cinquenta edições) e das Ilíadas em hexâmetros. Seu poema mais original foi Heroides, uma imitação de Ovídio, que consistia em cartas de mulheres santas, desde Maria, mãe de Jesus até , esposa do Imperador Henrique II. Suas Epistolae (Epístolas) foram editadas pelo seu amigo Camerarius, que também escreveu sua biografia (1553). Existem ainda outros contos de sua autoria publicados por (1860), (1874) e Karl Christian Friedrich Krause (1879).

Helius Eobanus Hessus; 6 января 1488, Хальгехаузен — 4 октября 1540, Марбург) — германский протестантский гуманист, педагог и один из крупнейших новолатинских поэтов своего времени, друг сподвижника Ульриха фон Гуттена. Первоначально, вероятно, носил фамилию Кох. Образование получил при монастыре Хайна и в Гемюндене, в 1504 году поступил в Эрфуртский университет, в 1507 году стал директором школы, но два года спустя оставил этот пост и переехал в Рисенбург (ныне Прабуты), где занимался юридической практикой и периодически писал стихи на латыни. В 1513 году получил во Франкфурте-на-Одере диплом юриста и переехал в Лейпциг, где занялся гуманистическими исследованиями. В августе 1514 года вернулся в Эрфуртский университет. Поддерживал Лютера в борьбе с обскурантами, в 1526 году стал профессором риторики и поэтики в Нюрнберге, а с 1536 года — профессором поэзии в Марбурге. Согласно ЭСБЕ, «отличался большим искусством в импровизации латинских стихотворений», получив от Лютера эпитет «rex poetarum» (с лат. — «король поэтов»). Известны его метрический перевод псалмов и «Илиады» (1540), его героиды (письма святых от Марии до Кунигунды), идиллии, эпиграммы, изданные под заглавием «Sylvae». (ru)
