Abstract

Erasmus was not only one of the most widely read authors of the early modern period, but one of the most controversial. For some readers he represented the perfect humanist scholar; for others, he was an arrogant hypercritic, a Lutheran heretic and polemicist, a virtuoso writer and rhetorician, an inventor of a new, authentic Latin style, et cetera In the present volume, a number of aspects of Erasmus’s manifold reception are discussed, especially lesser-known ones, such as his reception in Neo-Latin poetry. The volume does not focus only on so-called Erasmians, but offers a broader spectrum of reception and demonstrates that Erasmus’s name also was used in order to authorize completely un-Erasmian ideals, such as atheism, radical reformation, Lutheranism, religious intolerance, Jesuit education, Marian devotion, et cetera Contributors include: Philip Ford, Dirk Sacré, Paul J. Smith, Lucia Felici, Gregory D. Dodds, Hilmar M. Pabel, Reinier Leushuis, Jeanine De Landtsheer, Johannes Trapman, and Karl Enenkel.

Abstract

In der vorliegenden historischen Studie wird erstmals das in der Frühen Neuzeit allgegenwärtige Erziehungsideal der Frömmigkeit systematisch erschlossen und im Kontext von Theologie, Anthropologie und Affektenlehre verortet. Im Kontext der Affekttheorien gewinnt der Frömmigkeitsbegriff an Tiefe und wird für pädagogische Fragestellungen fruchtbar gemacht. Zugleich finden die Affekttheorien des 16. Jahrhunderts in der theologischer Anthropologie ihren legitimen Ort. Der Autor analysiert, auf welchen Grundlagen die Erziehung der Affekte im christlich-konfessionellen Kontext des 16. Jahrhunderts beruhte. Das Emanzipationspotential wird dabei ebenso sichtbar wie immanenter (Selbst-)Optimierungs- und Anpassungsdruck. Untersucht werden zwei der wichtigsten Protagonisten der Pädagogik des 16. Jahrhunderts: Erasmus von Rotterdam und Philipp Melanchthon. Damit wird zugleich die konfessionelle Ausdifferenzierung der Frömmigkeitspädagogik und der Affektregulierung in den Blick genommen. Hier fördert die Untersuchung entscheidende, in der jeweiligen Anthropologie begründete Unterschiede zu Tage. Die Arbeit erschließt die Grundlagen für eine Frömmigkeitsforschung aus pädagogischer Perspektive. Frömmigkeit erscheint dabei als ein vielschichtiger Begriff mit großem Potential zum Verständnis der Pädagogik des 16. und 17. Jahrhunderts.

Abstract

Although Erasmus is now accepted as a harbinger of liberal trends in mainstream Christian theology, the radical - even subversive - aspects of his work have received less attention. Beginning with a redefinition of the term radicalism, Peter G. Bietenholz examines the ways in which the radical aspects of Erasmus'writings inspired radical reactions among sixteenth- and seventeenth-century readers. Bietenholz examines the challenges to orthodoxy in Erasmus'scholarly work on the New Testament and the ways in which they influenced generations of thinkers, including John Milton and Sir Isaac Newton. Turning to other aspects of Erasmus'writings, the author shows the ways in which his opposition to war encouraged radical manifestations of pacifism; how his reflections on freedom of thought and religious toleration elicited both warm approval and fierce rejection; and the ways his critical attitude helped foster the early modern culture of Scepticism. An engaging look at Erasmus'theological, philosophical and socio-political influence, Encounters with a Radical Erasmus will prove useful to scholars of humanism, theology, the Reformation and Renaissance.

Abstract

During his lifetime Erasmus was one of the most controversial figures of Renaissance and Reformation Europe. In the 450 years since his death his reputation has undergone a series of fluctuations that reflect the attitudes of successive periods in European, and eventually North American, theological and social thought.Mansfield aims to relate changing interpretations of Erasmus to the historical contexts and experiences of those who wrote about him. He explores the influences in turn of the Enlightenment, romanticism, religious revival, and the emergence of liberalism.In the twentieth century, Mansfield concludes, more modern ways of studying Erasmus have emerged, notably through seeing him more precisely in his own historical context. He argues, nevertheless, that the Enlightenment liberal interpretation of Erasmus remained the dominant one through the whole period, and that despite its weaknesses, it did succeed in revealing essential aspects of Erasmus as a historical personality.
