1685 1ed Erasmus of Rotterdam Enchiridion Militis Christian Knight Soldier Wars
“When I have a little money, I buy books; and if I have any left, I buy food and clothes.”
― Erasmus
While best known for his ‘In Praise of Folly’ and ‘Colloquies’, Desiderius Erasmus wrote other important works including his book “Enchiridion Militis Christiani”. More commonly known as ‘Handbook of the Christian Knight’, this book is a guidebook for Christians on how to live a Christian life, rather than just going through the practices and appearing to be living for Christ.
This 1685 edition was published by John Hayes in Cambridge, a fine Latin printing of a famous work of Erasmus philosophy and theology.
