orn out of a love of language, text, classical learning, art, philosophy,
and philology, Renaissance humanism spanned the turmoil
1
of sixteenth-century Europe, eventually taking a new form in post-
Reformation thought. By way of advocating and practicing the
skilled use of languages, sources, rhetoric, eloquence, philology and all
the techniques of the
studia
humanitatis, humanist thinkers provided a
methodology and ethos for the study of scriptures, literature, theology
and philosophy
-
the basis of civil and religious change.
Jonathan Arnold here explores the lives and work of fifteen of these great
humanist thinkers, some of the finest intellects of late-Renaissance Europe,
offering an essential study of humanism s most important scholars, priests,
theologians and philosophers. Arguing that the humanist project for
reasonable religious reform was neither Protestant nor radical in nature,
Arnold asserts that, rather than suggesting a rejection of the Church,
reformers used the technique
oî ad fontes
-
a return to the original sources
-
attempting reformation far beyond the period of the Renaissance.
The Great Humanists also provides an invaluable context to the
philosophical, spiritual and political state of Europe on the eve of the
Reformation in its interrelated biographical sketches of pioneering humanist
figures, including Desiderius Erasmus, Thomas More,
Marsilio Ficino
and
Francesco Petrarch, among others. In examining the education, careers, and
works of each humanist, as well as briefly describing their relationships with
each other, Arnold explores the influence of the humanists amongst their
contemporary colleagues and society and their lasting legacy. These thinkers
are still extremely relevant and widely-studied today and this book will be
an invaluable resource for students and scholars of philosophy, religion
and early-modern European history.
JONATHAN ARNOLD is Chaplain and Senior Research Fellow
at Worcester College, Oxford. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical
Society, holds a Ph.D. from King s College, London and is the author
