"The scholarly representation is impressively international and the translations are well done". [....] "The highest standards of intellectual history are maintained throughout". Mark Vessey, University of British Columbia. In: Renaissance Quarterly Vol. 62, No. 3 (Fall 2009). "The thirteen essays [...] that constitute this volume address themes vital for the study of Erasmus and of the intellectual history of the Renaissance. They will initiate recruits into these fields of scholarship, while experts will benefit from the less commonly known data and interpretations". Hilmar M. Pabel, Simon Fraser University.
