About this book

Despite having enemies in the powerful Spanish religious orders, and being warned of the controversies that would arise, Erasmus published the fourth edition of his New Testament in 1527, resulting in a major crisis for Erasmianism in Spain. The three texts in the present volume were written in response to his critics.

Reviews

Jorge Ledo, Universidade da Coruña:

"In short, this new volume of The Collected Works of Erasmus will be welcomed with great interest not only by specialists but also by those interested in the history of the Inquisition, textual censorship, the impact of the Reformation in Spain and the religious culture in the first half of the sixteenth century in Castile, and finally Erasmus’ fundamental role in bringing to life the tensions existing in the religious and political spheres of the time."
