Description: This thirty-first volume in Erasmus' Opera omnia (ASD) is the sixth within 'ordo' VI, that is the 'ordo' of the New Testament and the Annotations; the Paraphrases
belong to 'ordo' VII. The division into 'ordines' - each 'ordo' being devoted to a
specific literary or thematic category - was laid down by Erasmus himself for the
posthumous publication of his works (see General introduction, ASD I, pp. x,
xvii-xviii, and C. Reedijk, Tandem bona causa triumphat. Zur Geschichte des
Gesamtwerkes des Erasmus von Rotterdam. Vortrage der Aeneas-Silvius-Stiftung an
der Universitat Basel, XVI, Basel/Stuttgart, 1980, p. 12 sqq., 21-22).
The present volume (tom. VI, 6, edited by ~F. Hovingh, Rotterdam) contains
the second part of the Annotationes in Nouum Testamentum, to wit the Annotations
on John and Acts.
The Annotations on the other books of the New Testament will be published
in ASD VI, 7-10. ASD VI, 1-4 will comprise Erasmus' edition of the New Testament
(Greek and Latin); tom. VI, 2 Oohn and Acts, ed. Andrew J. Brown) was
published in 2001. The order of publication depends on when the respective volumes
are finished.
With regard to the edition of 'ordo' VI the Editorial Board is much indebted
to Professor H.J. de Jonge (Leiden) for his expert advice.
The Editorial Board and the editor of the present volume are grateful to all
libraries that kindly put books, photostats, microfilms, and bibliographical
material at their disposal.
