Abstract

Along with other complete selections this volume contains the complete text of the Praise of Folly, The Handbook of the Militant Christian, and The Complaint of Peace. Dolan's translation achieves a freshness that recaptures the spirit that Erasmus' original texts must have had when he first published them. The commentary by Dolan is sympathetic and scholarly. This is by far the best inexpensive introduction to the thought of Erasmus.—E. A. R.
