The Correspondence of Erasmus

Letters 594 to 841, Volume 5

Übersetzer: Mynors, R A B; Thomson, D F S

Beschreibung

This volume is of particular interest because more than half the letters derive from the Deventer Letter–book, into which Erasmus had his amaneunses copy incoming and outgoing letters, among them many which were truly private rather than composed with a mind to subsequent publication.
