Notes: "The actual authors of the Epistolae accordingly stand before us to-day in the persons of Crotus Rubianus and Ulrich von Hutten ... To Crotus belongs the origination of the design ... and the first forty-one letters of the first series are probably from his pen alone. To Hutten belong the Appendix to the first series, and the whole of the second series" ... with the possible co-operation of a third person, Hermann von dem Busche. cf. Introd., p. lxvi-lxvii.
