One of the most important figures of the 16th century, Desiderius Erasmus was a leading reformist and Renaissance humanist. Through his works and letters, Erasmus championed that true religion was a matter of inward devotion rather than outward symbols of ceremony and ritual, and sought to reform aspects of the Church from within. His works showed an astonishing intelligence, razor-sharp wit, and an authentic love for God and humanity. Soon after publication, his works were translated and read all over Europe.
The Epistles of Erasmus, vol. 1 contains over two hundred letters from the approximate years 1493–1509, plus a detailed introduction, a chronological register of the letters, a table of correspondent's names, and five appendixes.
