His books were best sellers; his writings accounted for 10-20% of all book sales in Europe by the 1530's. Presented here is the first Printing in the English language of his Colloquies A Work of very great Use to such as desire to attain an exact knowledge of the Latin Tongue. First published in 1518 and expanded by Erasmus over the next fifteen years Erasmus' Colloquies deliver a collection of lively dialogues which delighted readers far beyond the Renaissance schoolroom for whom these were originally intended. They cover a wide range of topics including religion education morality and social issues. The dialogues often satirical and critical address the issues of Erasmus' time and offer sharp commentary on contemporary society. The Colloquies were intended to teach Latin and moral lessons to students but they also serve as a window into the intellectual and cultural landscape of the Renaissance. The English translation of the Erasmus' Colloquies introduced English-speaking audiences to Erasmus' ideas and philosophy creating a profound impact on European intellectual thought during the Renaissance. The Colloquies also played a key role in the development of English prose and language as they were widely read and studied by both students and scholars.
