Originally trained as a Catholic priest, Erasmus was an important figure in classical scholarship who wrote in a pure Latin style. Among humanists he enjoyed the sobriquet “Prince of the Humanists”, and has been called “the crowning glory of the Christian humanists”. Using humanist techniques for working on texts, he prepared important new Latin and Greek editions of the New Testament, which raised questions that would be influential in the Protestant Reformation and Catholic Counter-Reformation. He also wrote On Free Will, In Praise of Folly, Handbook of a Christian Knight, On Civility in Children, Copia: Foundations of the Abundant Style, Julius Exclusus, and many other works. JOHN PATRICK DOLAN (March 11, 1923 - December 1981) was an academic, author and translator. Born in Waterloo, Iowa, he received his Ph.D. from the University of Bonn, in 1955. He taught as Professor of History at the University of South Carolina from 1965 and later became Professor of Public Health in 1976 and Adjunct Professor of Preventive Medicine and Bioethics in 1979. He died in Columbia, South Carolina in 1981.view less
