The Erudite 2.5 has been released, with a couple of really nice new features. I had a request to include epigraphs in the theme, which perfectly matches The Erudite’s emphasis on typography and content. Have a look at the image or check the demo site:
I also learned this month from WP core team member Andrew Ozz that it’s possible to style the visual editor. Now you’ll have a much better idea of how your prose will look before you press Publish:

You’ll also note above how easy it is to add an epigraph to your posts.
Finally, thanks to Dennis Meulensteen for providing a Dutch translation. If you have a translation you’d like to contribute back to The Erudite, let me know in the comments or get in touch.
To download, go to the WP Themes Directory or, if 2.5 isn’t available there yet, to the project page.

Wonderful, even if the styled visual editor does’n really work well in Safari. Is it possible to disable it?
@Maurizio Comment out line 17 in functions.php to disable the visual editor styles. Or just use the HTML editor.
Hi,
Downloaded the theme from Wordpress and its great, really good ideology behind it. Even better, it was free but it did the job and got me to come to your site.
I don’t think its particularly suited to my type of business but i don’t care and i’m gonna use it anyway.
I wanted more control of the fonts and positioning though (para indents) and wondered who i can access the CSS file.
Thanks and great work,
Runako
