Excerpt from Luis Vives: El Gran Valenciano (1492-1540) Luis Vives has often been noticed as the friend of Bude in France, of Erasmus in Flanders, and of Sir Thomas More in England. The object of this monograph is to show that he is worthy of study on his own account. No Spaniard up to his date (perhaps, indeed, not at any time in the past) had ever come into such friendly relations with the English leaders of learning and culture on their own soil. It may be said that at least he ranks as high, educationally, as Erasmus. Probably as a pioneering reformer he should be placed higher. Though he only lived forty-eight years he was many-sided and had gathered much experience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
