Warren S. Smith is Professor of Classical Languages at the University of New Mexico, USA. Clark Colahan is Anderson Professor of Humanities and Professor of Spanish at Whitman College, USA.

Spanish Humanism on the Verge of the Picaresque is a good example of how Neo-Latin scholars can render important sources accessible to colleagues with limited Latin. Though Spanish is left untranslated, Latin is studiously Englished everywhere, including the introductory material. Pastor Bonus in particular merits even broader circulation, assuming a refinement of the translation. Social and ecclesiastical historians, students of picaresque, and specialists in early sixteenthcentury humanism will find enlightenment nicely salted by macabre diversion in Smith and Colahan's valuable contribution.Renaissance Quarterly, issue 63.3, Edward V. George, Texas Tech University, Emeritus
