The Erasmus, Desiderius 1469-1536 creator Johnson, E. (Edwin) 1842-1901 Bailey, N. (Nathan) -1742 text utu 2004 monographic en 1 online resource : multiple file formats "The Colloquies of Erasmus, Volume I." by Desiderius Erasmus is a collection of Latin dialogues first published in 1518. Beginning as simple language exercises for schoolboys, these witty conversations evolved into sharp examinations of religious practices, social customs, and human folly. Through dialogue form, Erasmus addresses pilgrimage superstitions, prostitution reform, friendship, and the nature of heresy. Written with gentle humor and graceful irony, these colloquies became both beloved reading material and controversial targets for censorship during the Protestant Reformation.
