Erasmus Rotterdamský Series

Erasmus of Rotterdam, hailed as the "Prince of Humanists," was a Dutch Renaissance scholar renowned for his pure Latin prose. Employing humanist textual methods, he produced influential new editions of the New Testament in Latin and Greek that shaped the Reformation. While critical of the Catholic Church's abuses and advocating for reform, he maintained a distance from radical reformers, championing a moderate path that emphasized free will and deep respect for traditional faith. His intellectual stance sought a middle ground, often disappointing those on either extreme.
