Liburu elektroniko honi buruz
A classic anti-war essay from the mid-1500s. Erasmus gives elegant arguments against war from both religious (Christian) and logical (economic, practical) points of view. He seems particularly alarmed and confused by Christians fighting wars with Christians. The problem, of course, is that people waging war only consider religious or logical reasons when they are looking for excuses to wage war.

Desiderius Erasmus (1466-1536) stands as one of the towering figures of the Renaissance, a period marked by a fervent revival of classical learning and humanistic values. Born in Rotterdam, Erasmus was an illegitimate child who rose to become a leading scholar, theologian, and social critic. His mastery of Latin and Greek, combined with his deep knowledge of classical texts, allowed him to produce critical editions of the New Testament that profoundly influenced Christian theology and biblical scholarship.Erasmus's wit and eloquence made him a celebrated figure across Europe. His works, often characterized by their satirical edge, critiqued the corruption within the Church and the moral decay of society. Perhaps his most famous work, "In Praise of Folly," is a biting satire that lampoons the absurdities of his time, from superstitious practices to the foibles of the clergy.A champion of education and intellectual freedom, Erasmus believed in the power of reason and dialogue over dogma and conflict. His calls for reform and his emphasis on a return to the original texts of Christianity positioned him as a precursor to the Protestant Reformation, although he himself remained a committed Catholic. This nuanced stance placed him at the center of many controversies, as he navigated the turbulent waters between reformers like Martin Luther and the established Church.Erasmus's influence extended far beyond his lifetime, shaping the thoughts of contemporary writers and future generations. His advocacy for peace, tolerance, and human dignity resonates with modern readers, making him a timeless figure in the annals of intellectual history.
