Collected Works of Erasmus: Literary and Educational Writings 7

Desiderius Erasmus

This final volume in the Literary and Educational Writings contains diverse woks spanning a generation. They demonstrate Erasmus’ skill in applying classical rhetoric to contemporary Christian needs. Four are short rhetorical pieces; the next group illustrates facets of Erasmus’ classical scholarship and includes several works that bear witness to Erasmus’ friendship with Thomas More. The last and most expansive piece in the volume, the Lingua, has not previously been translated into English. This work represents Erasmus’ growing criticism of his theological position by both Catholics and reformers. Volume 29 of the Collected Works of Erasmus series.
