ABSTRACT In the early modern times, correspondence doubtlessly formed an indispensable tool of intercultural communication, exchange, and influence. To determine exactly how far this correspondence did not serve merely as a projection screen reflecting otherwise separated worlds, but effected true entanglement among the letter-writers and their cultural spheres, requires a detailed analysis of the interconnectedness of the ideas and intents transmitted by them. This article undertakes this task through the correspondence between the Livonian humanist and diplomat David Hilchen (1561–1610) and the humanists Justus Lipsius, Johannes Wowerius, Josephus Justus Scaliger, and Janus Dousa in the Low Countries.

早期现代书信写作中的文化纠葛：大卫·希尔钦与低地国家人文主义者的通信

摘要 在近代初期，通信无疑是跨文化交流、交流和影响不可或缺的工具。要确切地确定这种对应关系在多大程度上不仅仅是反映了不同世界的投影屏幕，而是在信件作者及其文化领域之间实现了真正的纠缠，需要详细分析他们所传达的思想和意图的相互关联性。本文通过利沃尼亚人文主义者和外交家大卫希尔钦（1561-1610 年）与低地国家的人文主义者贾斯图斯利普修斯、约翰内斯沃维留斯、约瑟夫斯贾斯图斯斯卡利格和贾努斯杜萨之间的通信来承担这项任务。
