Erasmus: The Education of a Christian Prince with the Panegyric for Archduke Philip of Austria

Author: Desiderius Erasmus

This is a new student edition of Erasmus' crucial treatise on political theory and also contains a new, excerpted translation from his Panegyric. The Education of a Christian Prince is one of the most important "advice-to-princes" texts published in the Renaissance and was dedicated to Charles V. It is a strongly pacifist work in which Erasmus sought to ensure that the prince governed justly and benevolently. This edition also includes an original introduction, a chronology of the life and work of Erasmus, and a comprehensive guide to further reading.



Table of Contents:

Introduction; Chronology of the life and works of Erasmus; Further reading; The Education of a Christian Prince; Panegyric for Archduke Philip of Austria; Index.
