Editorial Reviews

First published in German in 1986, but here translated from the Dutch original by J.C. Grayson, Augustijn's study offers a re-evaluation of the life, writings, and significance of the great Dutch scholar and humanist (d. 1536), and forms an essential companion to the English translation of The collected works of Erasmus (Toronto, 1974-).
