Sinopsis

This fifth of seven volumes on the Adages continues from where the Collected Works of Erasmus volume 34 left off and includes 900 more adages from III iv 1 to IV ii 100. The aim of the Adages volumes in the CWE is to provide a fully annotated, accurate, and readable English version of the more than 4000 adages gathered, and commented on by Erasmus, sometimes in a few lines and sometimes in full-scale essays.

Following in the tradition of meticulous scholarship for which the Collected Works of Erasmus is widely known, the notes to this volume identify the classical sources and illustrate how Erasmus' reading and thinking developed over twenty-five years, a period spanned by eight revisions of the first edition of the work which appeared in 1508 and won immediate acclaim. Many of the proverbs cited by Erasmus are still in use today.

Volume 35 of the Collected Works of Erasmus series.

A prolific author, Erasmus wrote on both ecclesiastic and general human interest subjects.

****** INTERNATIONAL ORDERS ******
****** VERY IMPORTANT! ******

Travel time on International orders via regular parcel post can take up to 8 WEEKS to arrive. It averages 20-30 days, with some packages arriving faster than that, but 35+ day travel time is VERY common and quite normal, and can even be a bit longer if the package is held up in the Customs Department in your country waiting to be cleared for delivery.

The countries that take the longest are....
RUSSIA & UKRAINE (VERY LONG 50 to 60 days, even for PRIORITY MAIL!)
BRAZIL (40-50 days)
ITALY (35-45 days)
GERMANY (25-35 days)
AUSTRALIA (30-40 days of late for some unknown reason, however, this is not normal).

I do thank you for your patience. Airmail times are of course speedier.
