The name Erasmus of Rotterdam conjures up a golden age of scholarly
integrity and the disinterested pursuit of knowledge, when learning
could command public admiration without the need for authorial
self-promotion. Lisa Jardine, however, shows that Erasmus
self-consciously created his own reputation as the central figure
of the European intellectual world. Erasmus himself--the historical
as opposed to the figural individual--was a brilliant, maverick
innovator, who achieved little formal academic recognition in his
own lifetime. What Jardine offers here is not only a fascinating
study of Erasmus but also a bold account of a key moment in Western
history, a time when it first became possible to believe in the
existence of something that could be designated "European thought."
