This volume presents two significant works by Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus: "Colloquia Familiaria" and "Encomium Moriae" (The Praise of Folly). Erasmus, a towering figure of the Renaissance, showcases his wit, erudition, and humanist philosophy in these texts. The "Colloquia Familiaria" offers a series of dialogues exploring various aspects of life, society, and religion, providing a window into the intellectual and cultural milieu of the 16th century. "Encomium Moriae," a satirical masterpiece, playfully critiques the follies and vanities of humankind. This edition offers readers access to Erasmus's profound insights into human nature and the challenges of his time, rendered in elegant Latin prose. A cornerstone of Renaissance literature, this collection remains relevant for its exploration of enduring human themes.
