Publisher's Synopsis
In this volume, five of Erasmus' polemical texts are edited: the Apologia on the translation on John 1, 1: 'In principio erat sermo', edited by Jan Bloemendal, the Apologia on the text of 1 Corinthians 15, 51: 'Omnes quidem resurgemus, sed non omnes immutabimur', editied by Cecilia Asso, the Apologias against Pierre Cousturier, edited by Jean Céard, the Apologia against the allegations of Spanish monks, edited by Charles Fantazzi, and the Admonitio adversus mendacium et obtrectationem, edited by Johannes Trapman. These texts, most of them related to the Latin translation and Greek texts of his New Testament, shed light on Erasmus' way of working and the theological issues of the time.
