Fatal discord
Erasmus, Luther, and the Fight for the Western Mind
Book • 2018
This engrossing book chronicles the lives of Desiderius Erasmus and Martin Luther, two towering figures of the Renaissance and Reformation.
It contrasts Christian Humanism, championed by Erasmus with its focus on moral autonomy and rational inquiry, against Luther's Evangelicalism emphasizing faith alone and biblical inerrancy.
Their debate on free will highlighted deep theological tensions, influencing the modern world amid the corruption of the late medieval Church.
