'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!

The Praise of Folly is a hilarious satirical essay on various superstitions and irrational beliefs held by European society and the Roman Catholic Church at the time of Desiderius Erasmus. The narrator is Folly and her attendants include Philautia (Self Love), Kolakia (Flattery), Lethe (Forgetfulness), and Anoia (Imbecility).

In "Praise of Folly", also translated as "The Praise of Folly", is an essay written in Latin in 1509 by Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam and first printed in June 1511. Inspired by previous works of the Italian humanist Faustino Perisauli De Triumpho Stultitiae, it is a satirical attack on superstitions, other traditions of European society and on the Western Church. Erasmus revised and extended his work, which was originally written in the space of a week while sojourning with Sir Thomas More at More's house in Bucklersbury in the City of London.

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.

Das Werk, ein herausragendes, zu seiner Zeit wirkmächtiges Beispiel der Narrenliteratur, ist auch als Laus stultitiae bekannt. Es wurde eines der meistgelesenen Bücher der Weltliteratur und wurde schon zu Lebzeiten des Erasmus in viele europäische Sprachen übersetzt, denn Satiren waren in der Renaissance die bevorzugte Literatur der Gebildeten.

Young Erasmus Cromwell-Smith II’s adventure happens inside of Venice’s San Marco Square’s astrological clock. Exactly a year after his first quest in Prague’s astrological clock, together with the same band of five harlequin-dressed youngsters, he experiences a city filled with wizards, enchanters, witches, conjurers, and an evil gnome. The youngsters seek clues in order to reach the mysterious the church of St. Giorgio Maggiore across Venice’s basin and become “young wizards”.

Through the wicked streets of Paris, the young wizards must find six statues representing each of the human virtues of respect, selflessness, tolerance, and the human flaws of indifference, arrogance, and deafness. Only after they successfully master them will they earn the clues that will show them how to fix Lyon's astrological clock.
