This study, a companion to Peter Macardle’s edition of the
"Confabulationes," examines the ways in which the colloquies relate
to their Cologne background, to the major contemporary colloquy
collections (particularly Erasmus’s "Colloquia "and Mosellanus’s
"Paedologia"), and to the humanist renewal of Classical Latin. It
also looks in detail at the documentary traces of Schotten’s
career, and of his networks of friendship and patronage, and tries
to understand how he fitted into the structures of a university
which has often been (wrongly) understood as hostile to humanism.
Based on primary archival material, this is the only full-length
study of this underrated German humanist’s life and work.
