Purchase options and add-ons

This is a new student edition of Erasmus' crucial treatise on political theory and also contains a new, excerpted translation from his Panegyric. The Education of a Christian Prince is one of the most important "advice-to-princes" texts published in the Renaissance and was dedicated to Charles V. It is a strongly pacifist work in which Erasmus sought to ensure that the prince governed justly and benevolently. This edition also includes an original introduction, a chronology of the life and work of Erasmus, and a comprehensive guide to further reading.

Bought it for my political theory class. The translations were perfect and the subject matter was easy to understand. I previously did not know who Erasmus was; but through these texts I realized how similar his beliefs resonated with modern political leadership.

This book is a Classic. Even though it was written 500 years ago, the advice is valuable today. My only wish is that more of our leaders will take the time to read this book. Highly recommend.
