About the author

Desiderius Erasmus

1469–1536

A brilliant Renaissance scholar with a sharp wit, he helped shape European thought through classical learning, biblical scholarship, and lively social criticism. Best known for In Praise of Folly, he argued for education, moderation, and a more thoughtful, inward kind of Christian faith.
