Résumé

Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam stands as one of the most influential scholars of the Renaissance, whose groundbreaking work reshaped the very foundations of Christian scripture. Erasmus of Rotterdam: Editor of the New Testament offers a compelling and meticulously researched journey into his monumental effort to produce the first printed critical edition of the Greek New Testament, accompanied by a revised Latin translation.
Set against the turbulent backdrop of early sixteenth-century Europe-a time of humanist revival, ecclesiastical upheaval, and the dawn of the printing revolution-this book reveals how Erasmus's philological genius and humanist ideals converged to challenge centuries of textual tradition. Drawing on rare manuscripts and pioneering methods, Erasmus sought to restore the original biblical texts with unprecedented accuracy and clarity, opening the door for theological reform and scholarly inquiry.
From the painstaking manuscript hunts to the technical challenges of early printing, from controversial editorial decisions to the fierce debates that shaped the Reformation, this narrative uncovers the intellectual, ethical, and theological dimensions of Erasmus's project. His work not only influenced titans like Martin Luther and William Tyndale but also set the stage for modern biblical scholarship, making Scripture more accessible and comprehensible to generations of readers.
Richly detailed and deeply engaging, this book illuminates the life, struggles, and enduring legacy of a scholar whose devotion to truth and learning forever transformed the Christian world. Whether you are a student of history, theology, or the Renaissance, Erasmus of Rotterdam: Editor of the New Testament offers an essential exploration of the man who bridged faith and reason, tradition and innovation, shaping the course of Western civilization.
