Woodward, William Harrison. Desiderius Erasmus concerning the aim and method of education. [*]$1.30. Macmillan.
“This study of the life work of Erasmus as an educator is characterized by ... thoroughness, lucidity, and sympathy.... Erasmus as sketched here is not an altogether attractive personality.”—Int. J. Ethics.
