The translation of Erasmus's
Manual of the Christian Soldier
, thought to be by William Tyndale, is one of the foundational texts of the English Reformation. The present edition is based for the first time on the recently-discovered manuscript dating from 1523. It is accompanied by translations of other key religious works, Erasmus's treatise on the Lord's Prayer and the introduction to the New Testament; by the anti-papal satire,
Julius Exclusus
; and by the
Epistle in Praise of Matrimony
and the
Proverbs
, both translated by the English Erasmian, Richard Taverner, in support of Thomas Cromwell's reformist agenda.
