G.R. Evans, Journal of Theological Studies, 1982.
'...a vivid illustration of what Paul Kristeller has identified recently as an unjustly neglected thread of Renaissance thought, namely, the interaction of certain late medieval monastic writers with currents of Renaissance humanism.'
Eric W. Gritsch, Church History, 1983.
'...ist als willkommene Bereicherung der Trithemius-Lit. sehr zu begrüßen.'
