Door Frans van Lelyveld wordt Huydecoper geroemd om de manier waarop hij de Nederlandse taalkunde beoefende en bestempeld als de leermeester van vele leden van de Maatschappij der Nederlandsche Letterkunde. Hij was overigens degene die na Huydecopers dood in 1782 en 1784 het eerste respectievelijk het tweede deel van de herdruk van de Proeve uitgaf. Na Van Lelyvelds vroegtijdige dood voltooide Nicolaas Hinlópen het derde (1788) en het vierde (register)deel (1791)." (Bio- en bibliografisch lexicon van de neerlandistiek).

"In het voorwoord van zijn Lucianus-vertaling uit 1679 voelde Steven Blankaert zich genoodzaakt het uitgebreid voor Lucianus op te nemen. Te onregt werd hy beschuldigt van Atheïstery zo luidt de kern van Blankaerts betoog. Het heeft er dan ook alle schijn van, dat Lucianus' reputatie er de oorzaak van was dat Blankaerts vertaling niet meer herdrukt werd en dat zijn werk in het algemeen nauwelijks in het Nederlands werd vertaald."
