Beskrivelse af Erasmus Against War
Erasmus Against War is a collection of writings by the influential Dutch philosopher and theologian, Desiderius Erasmus, who lived during the Renaissance era. The book is a compilation of his thoughts and ideas on the subject of war, which he vehemently opposed throughout his life.Erasmus believed that war was a destructive and pointless activity that caused immense suffering and pain to individuals, families, and entire communities. He argued that war was not only morally wrong but also went against the teachings of Jesus Christ, who preached love and compassion for all.The book includes several of Erasmus' most famous works, including The Complaint of Peace, which is a powerful critique of the political and religious leaders who perpetuated war. In this work, Erasmus argues that peace is the only path to true prosperity and happiness, and that war only serves to destroy the very things that make life worth living.Erasmus Against War also includes several other essays and letters in which Erasmus explores the nature of war and its impact on society. He offers a scathing critique of the military-industrial complex that he saw emerging in Europe during his time, arguing that it was driven by greed and a lust for power rather than any genuine concern for the common good.Overall, Erasmus Against War is a powerful and persuasive argument against the destructive nature of war. Erasmus' ideas continue to resonate with readers today, and his work remains a vital contribution to the ongoing debate about the role of violence in human affairs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
