This volume contains the surviving correspondence of Erasmus for
the first seven months of 1529. For nearly eight years he had lived
happily and productively in Basel. In the winter of 1528-9,
however, the Swiss version of the Lutheran Reformation triumphed in
the city, destroying the liberal-reformist atmosphere Erasmus had
found so congenial. Unwilling to live in a place where Catholic
doctrine and practice were officially proscribed, Erasmus resettled
in the quiet, reliably Catholic university town of Freiburg im
Breisgau, Despite the turmoil of moving, Erasmus managed to
complete the new Froben editions of Seneca and St Augustine, both
monumental projects that had been underway for years. He also found
time to engage in controversy with his conservative Catholic
critics, as well as to write a long letter lamenting the execution
for heresy of his friend Louis de Berquin at Paris. Volume 15 of
the Collected Works of Erasmus series.
