Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Pursuits of Literature: A Satirical Poem in Four Dialogues I recommend the following anecdote to sagacious persons who know all authors (and me among the rest) by their style, or by any other certain or infallible sign. The anecdote is known to those who are accurately versed in literary history. Julius Scaliger wrote and published an oration, without his name, against the famous tract by Erasmus, called Ciceronianus. Erasmus, having perused it, immediately, (and upon conviction as he thought,) fixed upon Hieronimus Aleander, who was afterwards made an Archbishop by Leo X, and a Cardinal by Pope Paul the Third, as the author of the whole, pr of the greatest part of it, by signs which he conceived to be certain and infallible. Yet he was mistaken Entirely. The judgment and sagacity of Erasmus will not be questioned. But hear his own words, for on such an occasion as the present they are particularly remarkable.
