Review

Rabbie s editorial work is exemplary [ ]. Modern scholars, not only Erasmians, but all students of the early modern era in Europe, will be much in Rabbie s debt for the thoroughness, vivacity, and clarity with which he has presented Erasmus and his context in this war of words. Jane. E. Phillips, University of Kentucky. In: Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. 66, No. 4 (Winter 2013), pp. 1352-1353. "the extensive and painstaking scholarship that underlies the copious notes, hallmarks of the ASD project, will keep scholars from stumbling down blind alleys." Mark Crane, Nipissing University. In: Erasmus Studies, Vol. 34, No. 1 (2014), pp. 51-54."
