Erasmus: The Education of a Christian Prince with the Panegyric for Archduke Philip of Austria (Cambridge Texts in the History of Political Thought)

I am happy that I found this used book at a good bargain. Saved me some money for expensive college. The book condition is good. Thank you!

Bought it for my political theory class. The translations were perfect and the subject matter was easy to understand. I previously did not know who Erasmus was; but through these texts I realized how similar his beliefs resonated with modern political leadership.

This book is a Classic. Even though it was written 500 years ago, the advice is valuable today. My only wish is that more of our leaders will take the time to read this book. Highly recommend.

Great

True wisdom. Machiavelli is widely remembered, but Erasmus' wise and virtuous alternative is lost to this age. (Machiavellism is also a term for a mental disorder!) That is a tragedy. Find our for yourself.
