Excerpt from book: dained priest by the bishop of Utrecht, A. 1492, aged twenty-five.' The account which Du Pin and others have given us of the younger years of Erasmus, is taken partly from a remarkable Epistle of Erasmus to Grunnius, in which he is generally supposed to have described himself under the feigned name of Florentius 0. As to his brother, Erasmus hath oncep accidentally mentioned him as dead, in Ep. 922; though I do not find that this circumstance hath been observed. A. D. MCCCCXC. /ETAT. XXIII. This year Erasmus was with Henry a Bergis, archbishop of Cambray, who had taken him out of the monastery into his family. He says of himself, that he was not fit to bear the watchings, nor the fastings, nor the diet, nor the austerities of a monastery. He complains that he was often ill at the archbishop's house, though he wanted for nothing, there; and it appears from many of his letters that he was of a weakly constitution. He had a mind to go to Italy, and there to take a doctor's degree; and complains of the archbishop's parsimony, who gave him little besides good words and fair promises, and would not furnish him with the necessaries for such a journey and such an undertaking. He did not go to Italy till thirteen or fourteen years after. Ep. 3. A. D. MCCCCXCVI. JETAT. XXIX. Erasmus was now at Paris, where the archbishop had promised to assist him with a small pension; but he sent him nothing. Here he had some young pupils, and undertook to read them lectures. He found it hard enough to subsist, wanting money to buy books, or to get transcripts of them; for in those days printed books were scarce and dear. Erasmus, says Baillef, was a student in the college of Montaigu. He returned to Cambray; thence he went toHolland; and thence again to Paris, where he passed ...

Download or read book Erasmus of Europe written by Richard J. Schoeck and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1990 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an ambitious and wide-ranging biography of Erasmus of Rotterdam, one of the most famous Renaissance humanists. In part a riveting narrative account of the philosopher's journeys from his monastery to service with a great Burgundian bishop, and from there to Paris, England the Low Countries and Switzerland, this comprehensive and definitive biography also looks at the history of ideas in which Erasmus played a vital role. Covering the formative years of Erasmus the humanist, this new study makes full analyses of all his early writings, ncluding his Letters, his contributions to Renaissance dialogue and essay, and particularly his Adagia, the colloquies, and the Praise of Folly. After years of intensive research, and in an area which is essentially multidisciplinary, Professor Schoeck brings together serious historical, literary, theological and philosophical study in a unique way.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the history of Erasmus, an European humanist; and his essay against war. "With Erasmus a new period opens. Two things broadly distinguish him, as a scholar, from the men before and after him. First, he was not only a refined humanist, writing for the fastidious few, and prizing no judgment but theirs; he took the most profitable authors of antiquity, -profitable in a moral as well as a literary sense, -chose out the best things in them, -and sought to make these things widely known, -applying their wisdom or wit to the circumstances of his own day. Secondly, in all his work he had an educational aim, -and this of the largest kind. The evils of his age, -in Church, in State, in the daily lives of men, -seemed to him to have their roots in ignorance, -ignorance of what Christianity meant, -ignorance of what the Bible taught, -ignorance of what the noblest and most gifted minds of the past, whether Christian or pagan, had contributed to the instruction of the human race. Let true knowledge only spread, and under its enlightening and humanizing influence a purer religion and a better morality will gradually prevail. Erasmus was a man of the world; but with his keen intellect, so quickly susceptible to all impressions, he made the mistake, not uncommon for such temperaments, of overrating the rapidity with which intellectual influences permeate the masses of mankind. However, no one was ever more sistently or brilliantly true to an idea than Erasmus was to his; and it is wonderful how much he achieved..."
