Erasmus and the 'Other'

On Turks, Jews, and Indigenous Peoples

Autoři

Více o knize

Erasmus' views on non-Christians and various races, including Muslims, Jews, and indigenous peoples, are critically examined, revealing a commitment to Christian Eurocentrism that contrasts with his often-touted tolerance. Nathan Ron contextualizes Erasmus' beliefs alongside contemporaries like Aeneas Sylvius Piccolomini, Nicholas of Cusa, and Bartolomé Las Casas. The book also explores the more moderate perspectives on Islam from figures such as Michael Servetus and Sebastian Franck, highlighting Erasmus' harsher stance toward Muslims and Turks.
