«Diálogo de las cosas acaecidas en Roma» is the Renaissance dialogue by Alfonso de Valdés, published by Ediciones Cátedra in paperback (240 pages).
Alfonso de Valdés recreates the sack of Rome in dialogue form to defend the emperor's innocence: the chain of events is attributed to divine design, while the new spirituality advocated by Erasmus is contrasted with the corruption of the Church. It is a landmark work of Spanish Christian humanism.
Fourth edition, published in 2001 in the Letras Hispánicas collection, edited by Rosa Navarro Durán.
A work of interest for readers of Spanish classics and for those studying Renaissance humanism and Erasmism in Spain.
Alfonso de Valdés was a Spanish humanist, who worked at the chancellery of the Emperor Charles V. He was the twin brother of Juan de Valdés.
