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."

Synopsis

This edition of the complete works of Erasmus of Rotterdam is arranged according to the division into nine ordines which Erasmus himself laid down for the posthumous publication of his collected works. Each ordo is devoted to a specific literary or thematic category. In this edition, each text is preceded by an historical introduction, and is accompanied by two sets of notes: an apparatus criticus (i.e. the text-critical notes) and a commentary, in which Erasmus' sources are identified and references to contemporary persons and events clarified. Subscription Conditions 1. No volume will be sold separately. Only orders for the complete works will be accepted. 2. The cancellation of a subscription will not be accepted except under special circumstances where permission of the publisher has been obtained. 3. The publisher cannot accept any responsibility towards subscribers if publication has to be discontinued owing to unforeseen economic or political circumstances.
