Summary "Een twaalftal samenspraken" by Desiderius Erasmus is a collection of dialogues written in the early 20th century. The book explores various themes through a series of compelling conversations, delving into theological, philosophical, and social issues relevant to its time. Erasmus, renowned as a significant figure of the Renaissance and Humanism, reflects on the complexities of faith, society, and individual thought." The opening of this work introduces Erasmus and his early life, emphasizing the adversities he faced growing up in a modest household and his journey through academic institutions. It highlights the challenges of his upbringing, including the loss of his parents and the difficulties he endured as an orphan. In this portion, we see the foundations of his character being formed through these experiences, particularly his yearning for knowledge and understanding in a world marked by ignorance. The rich narrative details his educational pathways, encounters with various cultural and intellectual influences, and the struggles that shaped his philosophical outlook—all setting the stage for the profound thoughts he shares in the subsequent dialogues.
