A collection of scholarly papers presented at an international conference held in Bruges from 23 to 26 September 1985, examining the intellectual connections between Renaissance humanism in the Iberian Peninsula and the Low Countries. The contributions explore the influence of Erasmus in Spain, the life and writings of Juan Luis Vives, the reception of humanist ideas and their significance for education, religion, literature and political thought. Individual studies discuss Vives's European outlook, his writings on social welfare and politics, the spread of Erasmian ideas in the Crown of Aragon, and relations between scholars across geographical and linguistic boundaries. The volume contains contributions in several languages, including English, French and Spanish.
