Abstract

Erasmus - Der Humanist als Theologe und Kirchenreformer deals with Erasmus' person and work: his development, the main themes of his world of thought, some of his important works and his influence on contemporaries. The twenty articles in this book together draw a coherent picture of the man from Rotterdam. Erasmus is placed in the context of the intellectual movements of his time. Special attention is given to the attitude he adopts in the tension between Renaissance Humanism and Reformation. The relationship between Erasmus and Luther is the subject of several articles. Seven of the articles in this volume appear in German for the first time. The thirteen others have been published before, but have not been readily accessible. The book is important for historians and theologians interested in the era of Renaissance Humanism and the Reformation.

Abstract

A rebours des interprétations traditionnelles, cet ouvrage propose une lecture inédite du rapport d’Erasme à l’histoire. C’est sur le mode dramatique que Marie Barral-Baron envisage la manière dont Erasme vit l’histoire de son temps. Enthousiaste à l’idée de faire renaître les temps apostoliques, temps bénis du christianisme, il en oublie les réalités de la continuité historique. La brusque irruption de Luther, qui brise soudainement son rêve d’un nouvel âge d’or, lui permet de prendre conscience de sa tragique méprise. Bien involontairement, il a favorisé la rupture d’une unité chrétienne à laquelle il tient plus que tout, anéantissant ainsi lui-même ses propres espérances. Lorsqu’il en prend conscience, il corrige ses textes et révise son appréhension du temps, mais cette course contre la montre est perdue d’avance. Erasme sombre alors dans l’enfer de son propre échec, terrifié à l’idée d’avoir été abandonné par Dieu et confronté à la cruauté de l’histoire.

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.
