Erasmus of Rotterdam (1466-1536) was Northern Europe's leader of Renaissance thought. This edition of his most famous work, The Praise of Folly also includes selections from his other essays and two versions of the foreword to his translation of the New Testament.
This Norton Critical Edition provides a wide selection of Erasmus's writings, translated from the Latin into fresh, modern, and witty English. Adams has made these selections to emphasize the humane, rather than the doctrinaire, side of the first and greatest humanist.
