ref. 120238Amsterdam Apud Henricum & Theodorum Boom 1670. 12mo. 470331 blank p. frontispiece.

Front flyleaf removed. The blank upper margin of the frontispiece slightly cut short Note: The genesis of the treatise 'De conscribendis epistolis' of the Dutch humanist and scholar Desiderius Eramus 1566/69-1536 is rather complicated. The genuine edition authorized by Erasmus was first published in Basel by Froben in 1522. In the short preface to this work repeated also in this edition of 1670 Erasmus explains that he feels obliged to publish this work because a kind of pirate edition had been published in England recently i.e. 'Libellus de conscribendis epistolis' published in 1521 by John Siberch in Cambridge without his knowledge and consent. It was pirated from a copy of an old manuscript work of him on the art of writing letters which he wrote he continues about 30 years ago annis abhinc ferme triginta ca. 1492 in Paris at the request of a friend. Erasmus is very unhappy with this English edition because it is 'non solum rude sed & truncum et mutilum'. And now he offers the reader a completely revised and expanded treatment. The emphasis in the treatment remains clearly pedagogical. Erasmus gives an elaborate lesson on the presentation of the subject matter illustrating how the teacher should give an outline of the subject to be treated define it in some detail provide material from the classical authors and his own work Collation: A-X12 leaf X12 verso blank Photographs on request hardcover
