Das Lob der Torheit

byErasmus Rotterdam

Genres: Nonfiction Fiction

Who is this book for? Readers interested in philosophical critiques of society and human nature.

Topics FollySocietal CritiqueHuman Nature

MoodHumorous, Reflective

HumorSatire

Sie beherrsche die Welt, lässt Erasmus von Rotterdam die Torheit höchstpersönlich verkünden - man brauche sich nur umzusehen! Und sie sei überall: an den Universitäten, bei den Geistlichen, den Gebildeten, den Herrschenden wie bei den Untertanen. Die Lobrede auf die Torheit, gehalten von der personifizierten Torheit selbst, landete damals, mitten in der turbulenten Reformationszeit, auf dem Index der verbotenen Bücher. Zu scharf war die Kritik an allen Ständen, die Erasmus in diesem Text untergebracht hatte. Doch diese bitterböse und gleichwohl amüsante Rede ist beunruhigend zeitlos. E-Book mit Seitenzählung der gedruckten Ausgabe: Buch und E-Book können parallel benutzt werden.
