The publication between 1887 and 1897 of these letters, which form part of the archive of the Dutch Church at Austin Friars in London, was a remarkable feat of bibliography. The archive had been deposited in 1866 with the Library Committee of the Corporation of the City of London, and in 1884 Jan Hendrick Hessels began to prepare them for the press. The letters, written in Dutch, French, English, Italian and Latin between 1524 and 1723, throw light on the religious, intellectual and political ferment of the period. The second volume (reissued here in two parts) consists of letters to and from the members of the Dutch Church in the period 1544–1622. The writers of letters in this volume include leading figures of the Protestant reformation such as Martin Bucer, Peter Martyr, Heinrich Bullinger and John Foxe.
