Condition: Very Good. Hardcover in a bright dust jacket, pages 279-774. The aim of Erasmian education was a civilized life, expressed in Christian piety and the fulfillment of public and private duties and embellished by learning and literature. Towards these ends the soundest training for youth was what Erasmus often called bonne litterae, 'good letters,' a literary and rhetorical training based on Greek and Latin authors. The two works presented here in annotated translations are characteristic expressions of his dedication to learning and his confidence in the values of classical literature for the modern world of his time. Clean copy. Record # 387428.
