A wide-ranging & highly readable history of Latin between the sixteenth & twentieth centuries - a period when it dominated the civic & sacred worlds of Europe and, arguably, the entire western world. Latin explores the institutional contexts in which the language was adopted & transmitted as well as the privilege it came to confer on those that studied it. Annotation. Though the once burning question of Latin's place in school curricula has been overshadowed by other issues, Waquet (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Paris) feels the need for a resolutely historical account of the language that is not a pamphlet or an exercise in special pleading. She writes a social history of Latin in the modern era, analyzing the uses made of it and the discourses concerning it. The 1998 Le latin ou l'empire d'un signe, published by Editions Albin Michel, is translated by John Howe.

The aim of this book is to examine Erasmus’ attitude toward the medieval past and to relate it to his historical consciousness. More than any other Renaissance humanist, Erasmus was committed to the goal of building an alternative to medieval civilisation. In his view, the restoration and study of ancient pagan and Christian literature would result in an elevation of cultural and intellectual as well as moral and spiritual standards. Yet these very assumptions appear to be challenged by Erasmus’ specific observations on the course of history up to his own day. The present study is the first to show a fault line between the basic ideas of Erasmus’ Christian humanism and his view of the actual development of humanity through the ages.
