Περιγραφή για Erasmus: The Education of a Christian Prince with the Panegyric for Archduke Philip of Austria Cambridge University Press

The Education of a Christian Prince is a new student edition of Erasmus\'s crucial treatise on political theory. It contains a new, excerpted translation from his Panegyric, making it possible for the first time to compare two works which Erasmus himself regarded as closely related. The Education of a Christian Prince was published in 1516 and dedicated to Prince Charles, the future Emperor Charles V, and is one of the most influential books of the \'advice-to-princes\' published in the Renaissance era. It is a strongly pacifist work in which Erasmus sought to ensure that the prince governed justly and benevolently. The importance of Erasmus\'s work lies in his emphasis on virtuous conduct as the backbone of the polity, an argument which has influenced political writing up to the present time. This edition also includes an original introduction, a chronology of the life and work of Erasmus, and a comprehensive guide to further reading. Σελίδες: 181, Διαστάσεις: 13.8x13.8cm
