Trade edition of 1898.15 with a revised text once again. The alterations, omissions, and additions immediately come to light in the renaming of the first lecture and then again on the first page. In a note B.B. Warfield (cf. 1898.15) comments with regret that “the text was much altered by Dr. Kuyper himself with a view of bettering the English, but with the effect of waning it sadly.” This revision intended to address more than linguistic matters: besides the editorial alterations and deletions, eighteen footnotes were added.

The Dutch-Anglo-American alliance of publishers who published these six lectures on Calvinism were able to provide for the simultaneous release and sale of the book in the Netherlands, South Africa, England, Scotland, and the United States. For the significance and content of the lectures, see 1898.15.

Kuyper had asked Scribner’s to publish an American edition of the lectures, but according to a letter dated October 17, 1898 (KA 318) Scribner’s was unsure about the sales and wanted to postpone its decision until it received the sales results of 1898.12. After an English edition was published, Scribner’s declared itself prepared to purchase a supply for America. The publishers agreed upon the solution of Revell publishing an English edition (but see 1899.38) that Scribner’s would then purchase on consignment and distribute in the United States (letter dated December 9, 1898; KA 318, 46).

The lectures on Calvinism have since been published in ten different languages: English (1899.19), Dutch (1899.25), German (1904.25), Hungarian (1914.20), Japanese (1932.14), Korean (1971.01), Russian (2002.03), Portuguese (2002.05), Chinese (2006.05), Spanish (2010.06).
