The Praise of Folly is perhaps Desiderius Erasmus (1466-1536) best-known work. No other book displays quite so completely the transition from the medieval to the modern world, and Erasmus's wit, wisdom, and critical spirit have lost none of their timeliness today. This Princeton Classics edition features a new foreword by Anthony Grafton that provides an essential introduction to this enduring masterpiece.

Rezensionen
"Like all great minds Erasmus has the faculty of being perennially contemporary, and The Praise of Folly is a gay, witty revelation of the subtleties and intricacies of the scholarly mind of the Renaissance." - Edward Larocque Tinker, New York Times
