Cloth. Condition: Very Good. A smart three volume set of the Colloquies of Erasmus, a collection of dialogues or skits on a wide variety of subjects. Complete in three volumes. With a portrait frontispiece to volume one. Erasmus' Colloquies are a collection of dialogues or skits on a wide variety of subjects which began in the late 1490s as informal Latin exercises for his own pupils. The first official version, of 1518, was described as "a collection of formulae and conversational passages." Notable for its insightful commentary on various aspects of human life and society, the work showcases Erasmus' wit and humor. With sections addressing topics such as manners, education, and theological debates, often through sparkling exchanges between different characters. Written by Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus, commonly known in English as Erasmus, a Dutch Christian humanist, Catholic priest and theologian, educationalist, satirist, and philosopher.

Selection of three letters by the Church Father Jerome of Stridon (Saint Jerome, ca. 342/47-420 CE), edited and annotated by Erasmus. Erasmus felt a profound connection to Jerome. He saw in the ancient Church Father not only a kindred spirit but also a mirror for his own intellectual and spiritual journey. Included in this volume are three letters: first the epistle to Heliodorus on the praise of the solitary life (de vita solitaria), a stirring defence of ascetic withdrawal from the world; second the epistle to Heliodorus on the misery of human life (de miseria vitae humanae), a sombre reflection on the fleeting nature of earthly existence; and third the epistle to the monk Rusticus on avoiding familiarity with women (de mulieribus evitandis), a warning shaped by both monastic ideals and Jerome's personal convictions. Additionally, a short fourth letter addressed to Onasus is included at the end of the volume, though it does not appear on the title page. In this letter he satirically addresses the priest Onasus, who had a deformed nose, and his feeling of being unjustly attacked and being made a fool of in other letters and writings by Jerome.With early manuscript annotations (corrections etc. of the printed text) in the margins and occasional underlining of the text, mainly concerning the third letter, written in three different hands, in both brown and black ink. With a 0.5 cm worm hole in the gutter margin, not affecting the text. Occasional foxing and browning, and some water staining in the fore-edge margin of several leaves.
