A review by legallyde
In Praise of Folly by Desiderius Erasmus

I can’t rate this book. It’s brilliant obviously, but it was SO HARD to read. This is purely my fault for my lack of classical training in rhetoric and the fault of the grammatical differences in our time periods. Once I found a study guide online that explained many of the obscure (to modern me) references it was much more enjoyable. Erasmus is far too advanced for this to be a fun read but I’m glad I finally made myself do it.
