1 A perceptive Dutch theologian observed recently that, for Grotius, “[r]evelation perfects the rationality of the Ancients and ultimately determines what is rational in those cases in which the Ancients either did not pronounce themselves at all, or did so vaguely or contradictorily.” Hugo Grotius: Meletius sive de iis quae inter Christianos conveniunt epistola 29 (Guillaume H. M. Meyjes trans., 1988). Meyjes discovered, and in this volume reproduces with translation and commentary, the text, dating from 1611, of a manuscript containing Grotius's first known essay on theology.
