'The Praise of Folly', written in Latin in 1509 and spoken by the goddess Folly (who champions a lively enjoyment of life), was a bold satire on (in the cautious contemporary environment) not only Western classical traditions but also the Catholic Church. Dedicated to More himself, Erasmus wittily challenged entrenched views in so forthright (and humanist) a style that it could have brought him in direct conflict with the papacy. Fortunately the pope, Leo X, enjoyed the humour and the challenge!

Una sagace satira della chiesa cattolica del 16esimo secolo, narrata dal punto di vista della Follia stessa. Zeppo di umorismo pungente e di allusioni classiche, "L'elogio della follia" è una parodia che ha riscosso enorme successo già ai tempi di Erasmo stesso e ha inaspettatamente spianato la strada per gli inizi della riforma protestante. Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus (circa 1466-1536) è stato uno studioso umanista olandese. Figura di spicco del Rinascimento nordeuropeo, è stato il primo editore del Nuovo Testamento e ha scritto opere significative.
