The English Catholic Library. Volume the Third. A Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation

Of all the books written in English, The English Catholic Library. Volume the Third is the most important and significant of them all. It is a Dialogue of Comfort Against Tribulation. Thomas More was one of the leading humanists in England in the 16th century and this book is written in Latin and presents a unique intellectual challenge to any reader. The volume contains not only a translation of A Dialogue of Comfort but also an introduction by Professor Peter Ackroyd, which explains how it was written and what it is about. These pages are then followed by Latin text with facing-page English translation. "Thomas More's Dialogue has been called 'the most perfect work that has ever been achieved in prose fiction'
