History has defined Erasmus and Martin Luther as the two most
influential thinkers in pre-Reformation Europe. Through their
revolutionary words and writings, they shook the very foundations
of Western society. But who were these men? One was born a bastard
child of a priest and his maid and rose through academia to the
high society of the kingly courts of Europe. The other rejected the
life his father planned for him as a prestigious lawyer and instead
entered a monastery to pursue his own spiritual path. In this
remarkable book, author Barth Hoogstraten goes beyond the
limitations of dry historical texts to transport the reader into
the final days of medieval Europe at one of the most crucial
turning points in history. The reader meets many of the most
influential men of the time - from popes and kings to great
philosophers and corrupt indulgence sellers - while gaining
fascinating insight into two of the most brilliant minds in
history.
