Erasmus of the Low Countries

"This sensitive and well-researched intellectual biography of Erasmus, situating him in his political and cultural milieu . . . contributes to a new understanding of Erasmian texts."--Erika Rummel, Wilfrid Laurier University "Tracy's 'life and times' approach results in a considerably deeper understanding on the part of the reader of what sparked Erasmus's works, and of their intent."--Elisabeth G. Gleason, University of San Francisco
