Description

Following earlier articles in Renaissance and Reformation and Erasmus in English, this paper examines the fate of Erasmus’s Enchiridion Militis Christiani in three late editions published in the seventeenth, eighteenth, and nineteenth centuries. Again in 1686, 1752, and 1816, Erasmus’s work was called upon to support Catholic and Protestant convictions alike.
