‎Moriae Encomium nunc postremum ab ipso autore religiose recognitum una cum alijs aliquot libellis non minus eruditis quam amoenis quorum omnium titulos proxima pagella loquetur.‎

‎Basel: Johannes Froben1522. SIXTH FROBEN EDITION. Octavo:. A broad-margined copy bound in seventeenth-century English calfskin ruled in blind with small blind-tooled ornaments at the corners and an attractive red morocco label gilt on the spine. Slight chipping to spine upper hinges starting. With the 16th c. ownership inscription of William Hunsdon on the title page a little cropped and with a pressmark possibly of the Shaftesbury library on the front pastedown. A 16th c. slogan from Catullus appears on the final leaf "fluctibus fortunae mersor"; a small "memento mori" skull with the slogan "respice finem" appears at the end of the text. A fresh bright copy with a few tiny wormholes and some early annotations. An intriguing note on the title has been partly cropped "Sum W. Hunsdonus in sole caligatus p… Ainsworth impostor…". Erasmus' "Praise of Folly" was first printed by Gilles de Gourmont at Paris probably in 1511. The first Froben edition the first to include the additional texts found in the present edition appeared in 1515. This 1522 edition edited by Erasmus includes new material. With fine woodcut borders to the first three leaves."The Praise of Folly has long been famous as the best-known work of the greatest of the Renaissance humanists Erasmus of Rotterdam. It is a fantasy that starts off as a learned frivolity but turns into a full-scale ironic encomium after the manner of the Greek satirist Lucian the first and in its way the finest example of a new form of Renaissance satire. It ends with a straightforward and touching statement of the Christian ideals that Erasmus shared notably with his English friends John Colet and Thomas More."The book was written in 1509 to amuse Thomas More on whose name its Greek title Moriae Encomium is a pun as a private allusion to their cooperation in translating Lucian some years earlier. It was a retreat into the intimacy of their friendship at a moment when Erasmus just back from Italy was ill disillusioned at the state of the Church under Julius II and perhaps uncertain whether he had been right to turn down the curial post of apostolic penitentiary and promise of further preferment offered him if he stayed in Rome. "He tells us that he wrote the Praise of Folly in a week while staying with More and waiting for his books to turn up. It was certainly revised before publication in 1511 and the internal evidence leads one to suppose that it was considerably augmented and rewritten. Almost one sixth of the final text was added after the first edition almost all before 1522. The text as we have it now moves from light-hearted banter to a serious indictment of theologians and churchmen before finally expounding the virtues of the Christian way of life which St Paul says looks folly to the world and calls the folly of the Cross I Corinthians i 18 ff. It is situated at the nodal point where Renaissance Christianity having broken with medieval religion already manifests those characteristics that will later make inevitable the split between the majority of the evangelical humanists who inaugurated the early sixteenth-century return to scripture and the leaders of the Reformation."The bantering tone the attack on the theologians and the satire on widely practiced religious observances provoked a reaction of shocked hostility during Erasmus's lifetime. Erasmus regarded the Praise of Folly as a minor work and said that he almost regretted having published it. But Pope Leo X was amused by it and both More and Erasmus defended the work in long formal letters to the representative of the Louvain theologians Maarten van Dorp Erasmus' letter to Dorp is included in this edition. Erasmus himself was surprised at the satire's success and at the strength of the reaction it provoked. As he pointed out it contained cast in an ironic mold much the same views as he had already published in the Enchiridion Militis Christiani. But the Praise of Folly with its bantering and incongruous irony was a much more potent vehicle for conveying the same message."A.H.T. LeviAdditional texts:The Froben editions of the "Moria'" include two ancient examples of the mock-encomium Seneca's "Apocolocyntosis" or "Ludus de Morte Claudii Caesaris" "The Apotheosis of the Pumpkin-Head Claudius Caesar" and Synesius of Cyrene's "De Laudibus Calvitii" "In Praise of Baldness" translated from the Greek by the Englishman John Phreas d. 1465. In his introductory letter to Thomas More Erasmus cites both the "Ludus" and the "Praise of Baldness" in a pre-emptive defense against those who will object to his literary frivolity "levitas et ludicrum argumenti". The text of the "Moria" is accompanied by the commentary of Gerard Listrius with assistance from Erasmus.

‎ERASMUS Desiderius.‎

‎Moriae Encomium.‎

‎Strassburg Matthias Schurer August 1511. . Leaves measuring 19.4 cm x 13.8 cm. pp. 96 or A8 B4 C8 D4 E8 F4 G-H6 with the final blank leaf H6 present; occasional minor coeval underlining and marginalia to earlier part of text very light faded stain to lower margin at gutter throughout not affecting text bibliographical clippings tipped onto front endpapers. Bound in antique style calf. Scarce. First dated edition following the undated Paris printing by Gilles de Gourmont only two months earlier of which only a handful of copies now survive all of them in institutional libraries. The present edition almost as rare is not merely a reprint of the Paris edition but contains additional material including an address and laudatory letter to Erasmus by his fellow humanist Jakob Wimpfeling. All early editions are exceedingly scarce with only three appearing at auction in the last 100 years that we could trace. The first English translation was not published until 1549 although there had been Czech French and German editions prior to this. An excellent example of a classic work of paradoxical satire in which folly is personified and holds up a mirror to mankind. An extremely significant work both in its own right and for its influence on the Protestant Reformation in general. Sir Thomas More's own magnum opus Utopia was at least in part written as a response to Moriae Encomium: 'The Praise of Folly was written when Erasmus was staying in the house of Thomas More in the winter of 1509–10. Its title is a delicate and complimentary play on the name of his host: its subject matter is a brilliant biting satire on the folly to be found in all walks of life. The book stemmed from the decision which Erasmus had taken when he left Rome to come to England that no form of preferment could be obtained at the sacrifice of his freedom to read think and write what he liked The work was first secretly printed in Paris and as in other cases its immediate success safeguarded him from the consequences of his audacity Whenever tyranny or absolute power threatened The Praise of Folly was re-read and reprinted. It is a sign of what was in the air that Milton found it in every hand at Cambridge in 1628. His inherent scepticism has led people to call Erasmus the father of 18th century rationalism but his rationalist attitude is that of perfect common sense to which tyranny and fanaticism were alike abhorrent.' PMM 43 Despite the risky nature of the work and its explicit & implicit attacks on established religion and authority figures of the time its rapid popularity ensured that the author and the work were left unmolested by church and state at least until Erasmus' death in 1536 after which his previously untainted reputation was diminished. By 1559 all of his works had been proscribed under the insidious Index Auctorum et Librorum Prohibitorum. Bezzel 1298; cf. PMM 43; Vander Haeghen 122 Strassburg, Matthias Schurer, August 1511. unknown‎
