Irreverent Reading
“Erasmus laid the egg, Luther hatched it.” Already in the early Reformation this popular quip suggested a direct, causal link between humanism and the Protestant Reformation. Yet Luther’s precise debt to Erasmus has remained an elusive problem. This article reconsiders the issue by investigating how Luther read Erasmus’s scholarship, focusing on two remarkable, little-studied examples: Erasmus’s edition of Jerome and his Annotations to the New Te…

IAN Maclean. Scholarship, Commerce, Religion
In this book Ian Maclean presents a masterful synthesis of the economics of scholarly publishing in late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century Europe. Scholarship in this period was a transnational affair, conducted predominantly in Latin, published by specialized printing houses, and traded at international fairs. Many scholars, therefore, presented themselves as citizens of an alternative state, a Republic of Letters, governed by unwritten r…
Reading Augustine in the Reformation
This book explores the reception of Augustine of Hippo in the European Reformations. In this religious revolution Augustine was a highly contested authority, with different parties assimilating his thought in contrasting ways. This flexible reception raises fundamental questions about the significance of Augustine's thought in the Reformation period. It can also illuminate the relationship between religious change and the new intellectual culture…

How Catholic was Augustine? Confessional Patristics and the Survival of Erasmus in the Counter-Reformation
This article explores the impact of Catholic confessionalism on humanist scholarship by focusing on the edition of Augustine of Hippo's collected works produced by the Leuven theologians in 1577–8. This edition replaced Erasmus' controversial version and claimed to provide an authoritative, Catholic text. Yet an analysis of the paratextual presentation shows that the result was a neutralised Augustine, rather than a paragon of Tridentine Catholic…
Escaping the Reformation in the Republic of Letters
Recent scholarship has advanced paradoxical conclusions about the relationship between Renaissance humanism and the Reformation. While humanist techniques are considered to have played an instrumental role in the development, spread, and implementation of the Reformation, the humanist community is generally regarded as a supra-confessional “Republic of Letters.” This article addresses this paradox by looking at the religious language in Latin emb…
