Analysis of Content

a1r Valerius Episcopus [pseudo-; Eucherius, Episcopus Lugdunensis]: De contemptu mundi et cultu Dei.] ‘Epistola . . . ad propinquum suum'. PL L 711-26. The text is here wrongly described as a Latin translation by Rodolphus Agricola from the Greek of Valerius, the correct ascription having been made by Erasmus in the edition of 1517; see the preface edited by P. S. Allen, in Erasmus, Epistolarum opus, 12 vols (Oxford, 1906-58), III 98-101, and note 1.
