Sinopsis

Typvs occasionis, published in 1599, is a notable work by Joannes David, a prominent Jesuit scholar and emblem writer. Written in Latin, this book employs personification to illustrate the advantages of seizing opportunities and the disadvantages of neglecting them. Through allegorical representation and symbolic imagery, David explores themes of fortune, time, and moral decision-making. The book?s title, which translates to ?The Image of Opportunity,? reflects its central motif: the fleeting nature of opportune moments and the importance of acting decisively. This emblem book offers valuable insights into the cultural and intellectual landscape of the late Renaissance, providing a fascinating glimpse into the period?s artistic and didactic traditions.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
