Sumario:In Early Modern Spain, only a limited number of the works by Erasmus was available in vernacular, due to inquisitorial censorship. In the first Spanish index of forbidden books any translation of the "Praise of Folly", Erasmus' most famous work, was explicitly prohibited, which led many scholars to believe that a Spanish "Moria" must have existed. Efforts to find the text were hitherto unsuccessful. The present edition, based upon the discovery of a seventeenth century manuscript of a Spanish translation of "Moria" extant at Ets Haim/Livraria Montezinos (Amsterdam) offers the presently only surviving proof of the existence of that translation.
