This 500-word vita was one of eighty-six Crinitus wrote for is De Poetis Latinis, a collection of brief lives of ancient poets, firs printed in 1505, that saw tent reprints by 1600. After the author’s death in 1507, editors used excerpts from the De Poetis Latiinis as introductions in editions of Catullus, Tibullus, Propertius, Horace, and, beginning in 1531, Lucretius. Eleven Lucretius editions, one-third of those printed before 1600, include Crinitius, making him Lucretius’s most constant companion, particularly in the cheaper octavos and pocket versions.
