Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Erasmus wrote In Praise of Folly, his masterpiece of ironic literature, in less than a week while en route to England from Italy to visit his good friend Thomas More. He wrote it merely to amuse himself and he was astonished at its immediate and wide popularity. But his satire of the clergy, the upper classes, and general pretentiousness, narrated by the goddess Folly, daughter of Youth and Wealth, struck a chord and is considered by some historians to be one of the catalysts of the Protestant Reformation.This might have disappointed Erasmus who, though critical of the Church, never intended to encourage a split and remained a faithful adherent until his death. Still read regularly in college English courses, Erasmus's timeless classic remains as relevant today as it was when first written nearly five hundred years ago.Dutch humanist, scholar, and theologian DESIDERIUS ERASMUS (1466 -1536) is perhaps best remembered for In Praise of Folly. His other works include Handbook of a Christian Knight (1503), Instituto principis Christiani (1516), and Colloquia familiaria (1518).

Seneca's complete works, here carefully prepared by Erasmus and printed by the renowned Basel publisher Johann Froben, are remarkable both for its scholarly rigor and its historical significance. The present work represents one of the earliest Renaissance printings of Seneca's writings, presenting essays, letters, and philosophical dialogues that guide the reader toward virtue, wisdom, and a well-examined life. Erasmus' thorough editorial care ensured that the texts were largely purged of errors, making this edition an important reference for both humanist scholars and students of classical literature.In addition to the main works, this volume includes a number of supplementary writings added by Erasmus, reflecting his deep engagement with Seneca's philosophy and his commitment to moral and linguistic improvement. The preface encourages attentive reading, promising both the refinement of language and the betterment of one's life.The work entitled Ludus de morte Claudii Caesaris includes marginal commentary by Beatus Rhenanus, a German humanist and reformer who was a friend of Erasmus and actively involved in the publishing activities of Johann Froben.With printed ex libris bookplate mounted on the front pastedown, manuscript waste visible between the front and back endpapers, a few manuscript annotations in the margins, and some of the text underlined.

First edition of the works of Thascius Caecilius Cyprianus (Saint Cyprian, ca. 210-258 CE), edited by Erasmus. The present work is a landmark in the history of humanist scholarship and a cornerstone of Erasmus's lifelong effort to restore the authentic voice of the Early Church Fathers. Working in Basel, Erasmus devoted himself to what he regarded as his highest calling: presenting these foundational Christian sources to a wider audience and revealing the truth of the Gospel in its original simplicity.In this edition, Erasmus rescued Cyprian's writings from centuries of textual corruption, carefully correcting medieval errors and adding several minor treatises from ancient manuscripts that had never previously been printed. It includes Cyprian's pastoral letters and doctrinal works, arranged by theme, and reflects the bishop's deep concern with church unity, moral discipline, and the challenges of the early Christian community.This 1520 edition of Cyprian's works marks the true beginning of Erasmus' great Basel enterprise: a series of monumental editions that would soon include works by Arnobius (1522), Hilary (1523), Jerome (1524), Irenaeus (1526), Ambrose (1527), Augustine (1528-29), and Chrysostom (1530). This rapid succession of vast editorial projects reveals both Erasmus's astonishing intellectual energy and his conviction that the wisdom of these Church-Fathers could renew Christian life.More than a critical edition, the present work embodies the spirit of Christian humanism itself: rigorous scholarship in the service of faith. It stands as one of Erasmus' most significant achievements and a defining moment in the recovery of patristic learning in the Renaissance.With manuscript waste pastedowns, three stamps of the Roman Catholic Saint Maria-Magdalena church in Zaandam on the title page, occasionally some (near contemporary?) manuscript annotations in the margins and some of the text has been underlined. The work has been re-backed, lacking the backstrip of the original binding, the edges of the leather around both boards is slightly damaged revealing the wooden boards below, the spine is somewhat rubbed. The edges of the first and last few leaves are slightly frayed, some occasional water staining in the fore-edge margin (not affecting the text), some slight staining and dust soiling throughout.

Second edition of Saint Cyprian's works as edited by Erasmus, published by Froben one year after their first edition. Between 1516 and 1521, Erasmus worked closely with Johann Froben, the humanist printer in Basel, on a series of editions of the Latin Church Fathers: Jerome, Augustine, Ambrose, Hilary, and Cyprian. Erasmus' aim was to purify the texts of the Fathers from medieval corruptions, to restore their authentic doctrine by returning to the original sources, and to present the Early Church as a model for a purer form of Christianity, a theme that directly reflected his theological-humanist ideal.Erasmus states that he has cleansed the text of errors, added a few minor treatises from ancient manuscripts, and removed the works that seemed to have been falsely attributed to Cyprian. Thascius Caecilius Cyprianus (ca. 210-258 CE), later known as Saint Cyprian, was an influential Church Father of the early Latin Christian tradition. Shortly after his baptism he became bishop of Carthage, one of the most important Christian centres in the Roman Empire. Most of his works are pastoral letters and treatises, here arranged in the index by type. The manuscript appears to have been used for study, as the annotations highlight portions of the text and draw comparisons between Augustine and Cyprian.With small strips of manuscript waste visible in the gutters of the pastedowns, a small owner's inscription ("H. Reimers Erlang.(?) 1899") in the upper outer corner of the first blank flyleaf along with elaborate manuscript annotations on the recto of that same leaf, numerous contemporary and later annotations in three different hands throughout, and some of the text underlined. The leather around the top and fore-edge of the front board has been restored, the leather on the back board is somewhat damaged, some small worm holes in the leather reveal the wooden boards below. The binding is rubbed, the clasps are lacking, and the head and foot of the spine are somewhat damaged, the structural integrity of the binding nevertheless remains intact. The first blank flyleaf has been restored in the gutter margin, the last leaf has been restored in the fore-edge margin, the edges of the leaves are somewhat browned.
