Summary/Abstract: The first Russian translation of four letters of Erasmus and his English friend J. Kolet (1512—1513) is offered. Translators propose a number of new interpretations of the epistolary data, allowing to correct dating and chronology of events from the life of authors of messages. Materials of correspondence give the chance to plunge into everyday life of the Renaissance intelligentsia, to recreate an intellectual and social context in which great works of both respondents were carried out, to observe their characters and relationship.
