Desiderius Erasmus (c. 1466–1536), a Dutch humanist, Catholic priest, and scholar, was one of the most influential Renaissance figures. A professor of divinity and Greek, Erasmus wrote, taught, and travelled, meeting with Europe’s foremost scholars. A prolific author, Erasmus wrote on both ecclesiastic and general human interest subjects.Elaine Fantham (1933-2016) is British-Canadian classicist. She was Giger Professor of Latin at Princeton University from 1986-1999. Betty I. Knott-Sharpe is a senior honourary research fellow in Classics at the University of Glasgow.

‘This addition to the Toronto Collected Woks displays all the virtues of the previous volumes of the project. The translators have produced a very readable text, one that even invites reading aloud, as no doubt was the intent of the original.’- Peter Huff (Sixteenth Century Journal vol 46:03:2015) 'The English edition of the Apopthegmata represents an imposing work of scholarship which would be of great interest, not just to students and scholars who lack linguistic skills to read Erasmus in the original Greek & Latin but to specialists who wish to gain deeper understanding of one of the most popular and influential works of the sixteenth century.'- Robert Kilpatrick (Erasmus Studies vol 36:2016)
