Coles Collected Works of Erasmus: Annotations on Acts at Bayshore Shopping Centre in Ottawa, ON
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Erasmus’s Annotations began as marginal comments in his own copy of the New Testament and were subsequently published in 1516 as a supplement to the Novum Instrumentum . His annotations were intended to justify his changes based on the Greek text. In each successive edition, published between 1516 and 1535, the Annotations grew in size and scope, providing Erasmus with the opportunity to defend his translations in the face of growing criticism from orthodox Catholic theologians. His notes reveal a man of the Renaissance, a man with a humanist instinct, and an obsessively humanist mind.
This volume of the Collected Works of Erasmus notes the editorial changes made in the five editions and also provides the reader with information about the patristic, medieval, and contemporary sources consulted by Erasmus, and about the evolving relations with contemporary critics.
This book highlights how Annotation on Acts played a pivotal role in the development of sixteenth-century biblical exegesis and mark a significant stage in the evolution of humanist biblical scholarship. The annotations in this volume intrigue with their method, delight with their apparent self-confidence, charm with their personal allusions whether laudatory or contemptuous, and illuminate the text of Acts for the modern reader.
