About 1540-45 the exiled Scot Buchanan had produced at Bordeaux not only Latin translations of Euripides, but two original Latin Biblical tragedies, Jepthes and Baptistes.
Among the amateur actors of his plays was a certain young rogue, the Sieur Michel de Montaigne. In 1552-3 appeared Jodelle's Cleopatre — ghost, vision, confidant, messenger, and all. Senecan influence increased. In Garnier, the next name of importance (eight tragedies 1563-90), it is paramount.
Garnier's effect on the English
... academic coterie of the Countess of Pembroke, Kyd, Brandon, Daniel, in producing a second wave of English Senecanism must be dealt vidth later. _ The first influence of Seneca in England was naturally felt in the schopls and universities, and the first imitations of him, as in Italy and France, were composed in Latin. In 1532 the boys of St Paul's acted before Cardinal Wolsey a Latin tragedy on Dido by their headmaster, one of the becoming name of Rightwise. About ten years later, and simultaneously with Buchanan's Latin Bible plays in France, appeared the Absalom of Watson, which he suppressed, as Ascham says, on account of minor metrical lapses, and the Christus Rediviims of Grimald, acted at Oxford in 1540, which however is full of comic soldiers and rather a combination of Terence and Medievalism than a Senecan play.
