Yet very little is known about the production and reception of the \u003ci\u003eParaphrases\u003c\/i\u003e, which comprise nine volumes of the \u003ci\u003eCollected Works of Erasmus\u003c\/i\u003e in English. In this collection of twelve contributed essays, Hilmar Pabel and Mark Vessey aim to address this gap in Erasmus studies. The papers reflect recent critical scholarship in three main areas: Erasmus' promotion of the ideals of Renaissance humanism; his work as an editor, translator, and interpreter of the New Testament; and the impact of his published writings on the culture of early modern Europe.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003ci\u003eHoly Scripture Speaks\u003c\/i\u003e represents the most concerted collective study of Erasmus' \u003ci\u003eParaphrases on the New Testament\u003c\/i\u003e since the completion of the first English translation by scholars during the reign of Edward VI (1548\/9). It reveals the rich complexity of the literary, theological, and cultural dimensions of the \u003ci\u003eParaphrases\u003c\/i\u003e, and indicates future directions that research in this area should take.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hilmar Pabel\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Toronto Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/15\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 352\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.93d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781487524920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHilmar M.
