Excerpta ex Martini Delrio Vindiciis Areopagiticis

Martin Delrio SJ (1551-1608): excerpts from his Vindiciae Areopagiticae, on why the Dionysian writings lay hidden so long and on the witness of Fathers, councils, popes and Latin writers to them, in Latin with Greek quotations, with the editors' introductory note and foot notes (Migne, PG 4). The text was first read by Gemini (a machine reader), and the Reading Room checked a sample of its columns against the page.
