Overview

De Lof Der Zotheid (In Praise of Folly), by Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam, is a satirical essay first published in 1511. This edition, ""Speelensgewys Beschreven Door Erasmus Van Rotterdam,"" represents a playful and engaging presentation of Erasmus's classic work. This edition includes ""Het Heekel-spel Van Den Verrezenen Diogenes,"" adding another layer of satirical commentary.

This edition, expanded by Joannes Amos Comenius and Frans Van Hoogstraten, offers readers a unique opportunity to experience this timeless work in its original Dutch context, capturing the spirit of intellectual and social critique that defines Erasmus's legacy.
