Prince Moral Ethics Rhetoric Philosophy
“When I have a little money, I buy books;
and if I have any left, I buy food and clothes.”
― Erasmus
While best known for his ‘In
Praise of Folly’ and ‘Colloquies’,
Desiderius Erasmus wrote other important treatises including ‘The Education of a Christian Prince’.
This book was a unique instructional manual written to teach royals how to act
and rule, focusing on their moral behavior, religious practices, and ethics. Erasmus’s
understanding of classical rhetoric was evident in this work, and it has become
an important piece in the history of rhetoric.
