Author:
"It is hardly a common occurrence when a long-lost work by a famous author is recovered and presented to the scholarly world. The publication of the Meletius by Hugo Grotius is just such an event...The importance of this volume lies not only in the new and clearer perspective that the Meletius itself gives on the life and work of an important thinker of the seventeenth century, but also in the major contribution made by its editor to our understanding of the intellectual life of the Netherlands in Grotius' time." - Richard A. Muller, in: Consensus, 1990
"This study in archival sleuthing, intellectual history, and textual editing will become a classic and should be in every library worthy of the name." - Gerald Cerny, in: Church History, 1991
"...a fine work of scholarship which does full credit to one of the most learned and remarkable men of his time." - Alastair Hamilton, in: Times Literary Supplement, 1988
"In my opinion this edition of a hitherto unknown work of the great Dutch lawyer and statesman...is certainly welcome to all historians of early mod. Europe." - Kn, in: Archiv für Reformationsgeschichte, 1989
