View full profile →

Desiderius Erasmus Roterodamus (1466–1536) was a Dutch Christian humanist, theologian, and scholar of the Renaissance. He championed a return to the original sources of Christianity (ad fontes), producing critical editions of the New Testament and the Church Fathers, and advocated for a moderate, reform-minded Catholicism that emphasized inner piety, education, and peace over dogmatic rigidity and ecclesiastical corruption.
