    AnnotationThis article and an attached edition deal with newly discovered correspondence between Jan Amos Comenius (1592-1670) and Johann van Almeloveen (1616-1678). It summarizes Comenius’s stay in the Netherlands, his contacts and surviving letters with Dutch correspondents. Johann van Almeloveen was an active member of the republic of letters as his own correspondence attests. His life and relationship to Comenius and his circle of acquaintances is covered in detail in this paper. The edition includes six Latin letters exchanged between Almeloveen, Comenius and his son Daniel from 1667 to 1670, five of which are edited here for the first time. All letters are provided with an English translation.
