Description: This twenty-ninth volume in Erasmus' Opera omnia (ASD) is the second 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, Ttmdem bona causa triumphat. Zur
Geschichte des Gesamtwerkes des Erasmus von Rotterdam. Vortrage der AeneasSilvius-
Stiftung an der Universitat Basel, XVI, Basel/Stuttgart, 1980, p. 12 sqq.,
21-22).
The present volume (tom. VI, 2, edited by Andrew J. Brown, London) contains
the second part of Erasmus' edition of the Nouum Testamentum (Greek and
Latin text), to wit John and Acts.
The other books of the Nouum Testamentum will be published in ASD VI,
1 and 3-4. ASD VI, 5-9 will comprise the Annotations on the New Testament;
tom. VI, 5 (the Annotations on Matthew-Luke) was published in 2000. 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.
