A vivid doorway into the young sciences of the mind. The Age Of Erasmus gathers P. S. Allen's era-spanning lectures into one enduring voice, speaking to anyone who has stood in quiet awe before a chalk-smeared lecture hall. This volume offers a concise, accessible voyage through historical lectures that illuminate renaissance humanism and the ideals of humanist education. Read as a public lectures collection, it threads together eloquent explorations of rhetoric and learning with the questions that stirred Oxford venues and London lecture halls alike. For student readers and the scholarly audience alike, the essays are a map of ideas-how early modern philosophy, humane letters, and classic humanist scholarship shaped classrooms, courtyards, and councils. The work is more than a snapshot of its time; it is a landmark in the ongoing conversation about how we learn, teach, and carry curiosity forward. Its historical significance rests in its careful portrait of a pivotal intellectual era, and its modern relevance lies in how these discussions about education, culture, and belief still echo today. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. A refined bridge between accessible scholarship and the stirring appeal of masterful public discourse.
