In Encomium Moriae (The praise of Folly, 1511), Erasmus mockingly proclaims the superiority of folly over wisdom in order to emphasize his Christian-Humanist views. He tried to rescue religion from the pedantry of the Scholastics. One of his main contributions to knowledge was his interpretation of the spirit of the Renaissance to nothern Europe. He edited the first Greek New Testament to be printed (1516), and also translated it into Latin.

Dutch scholar and leading humanist of the Renaissance era, who taught and studied all over Europe and was a prolific writer. His pioneer translation of the Greek New Testament (with parallel Latin text, 1516) exposed the Vulgate as a second-hand document. Although opposed to dogmatism and abuse of church power, he remained impartial during Martin Luther's conflict with the pope.

Erasmus, Desiderius - Dutch
URL: http://www.kun.nl/ahc/vg/html/vg000194.htm

Desiderius Erasmus was de onbetwiste leider van het humanisme benoorden de Alpen. Hij werd op 28 oktober 1466 (of misschien 1469) geboren in Rotterdam als zoon van een priester. Hij bezocht scholen te Gouda, Deventer (1478-1484; sinds 1483 onder het rectoraat van Alexander Hegius) en 's-Hertogenbosch (1484-1486); in de laatste twee plaatsen woonde hij in kosthuizen van de Broeders des gemenen levens. In 1487 trad hij als Augustijner kanunnik in het klooster Steijn bij Gouda in. In 1492 volgde zijn priesterwijding. Vanaf 1495 studeerde hij in Parijs, waar hij naam maakte als literator en privй-docent. In de jaren daarop reisde hij heen en weer tussen Frankrijk, de zuidelijke Nederlanden en Engeland. In deze tijd formuleerde hij zijn ideaal: een herstel van Latijnse letteren en christelijke vroomheid.
