A leading diplomat of the period, patron of artists and humanists, and conservative Catholic, Pio continually angered Erasmus by criticizing him for his denunciations of church practices and officials, and by accusing him of supporting Luther and holding dangerous opinions. The texts are lucid, passionate, and even vitriolic at times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe introduction by Nelson H. Minnich provides a biography of Pio, an overview of the controversy and related texts, and a bibliographical conspectus of source-texts. The translation is by Daniel J. Sheerin. The annotation by Minnich and Sheerin is wide-ranging and informative, answering questions posed by the text and placing the reader firmly in the sixteenth-century context of the dispute.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is the first English translation of the Alberto Pio controversies. In the CWE series it follows on volumes 71-83, which contain Erasmus' controversies with other critics on theological, political, social, philological, and educational matters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eVolume 84 of the \u003ci\u003eCollected Works of Erasmus\u003c\/i\u003e series.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Desiderius Erasmus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0802043976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780802043979\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/15\/2005\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 792\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.82lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.80h x 6.80w x 1.80d","brand":"Desiderius Erasmus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48065133281535,"sku":"9780802043979","price":272.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_97338d3d-6167-4603-9871-4d4275dcb937.jpg?v=1768673213","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/collected-works-of-erasmus-desiderius-erasmus-9780802043979","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
