Ernest Robert Curtius

Ernst Robert Curtius (1886 1956) was a German literary scholar, best known for his 1948 work Europische Literatur und Lateinisches Mittelalter (1953 English translation European Literature and the Latin Middle Ages, by Willard R. Trask). It was a major study of the Medieval Latin literature and its effect on subsequent writing in modern European languages. It was largely responsible for introducing the literary topos concept as a scholarly and critical discussion of literary commonplaces. Ernst Curtius, his grandfather, and Georg Curtius, his great-uncle, were both notable scholars. Curtius, ER
