Dear, I share the note refers to the output in Paraguay last Sunday of the play In Praise of Folly, Erasmus, I had the pleasure to present. Here they are listed a few lines of my presentation of the work. The original link is: http://www.abc.com.py/nota/lideres-del-pensamiento-sigue-entregando-saberes and opens the space here to leave a comment about the classic work of Erasmus.


"thought leader" continues to deliver knowledge

Collection Universal Thought Leaders has become the largest series of books on philosophy that has been published so far in Paraguay and the most popular projection, in a unique contribution and ABC Color Reader to raise the cultural level of the population. Yesterday

gave the public the ninth volume of the 16 that make up this library, "In Praise of Folly" by Erasmus of Rotterdam, a book whose appearance created a great expectation.

The tenth book, which will appear next Sunday 31 October, is "The Prophet" by Khalil Gibran, from an extraordinary wealth of content within the framework of an exquisite lyrical style.

Great acceptance

The book delivered yesterday, "In Praise of Folly" was received with great acceptance by readers, alerted by ABC prior publications concerning the form and the substance of the text written by one of the most enlightened humanists of all time: Erasmus of Rotterdam.

regard to this work, the thinker Uruguayan Pablo Romero García ABC sent its opinion, part of which states: "In this jewel of universal thought, the great philosophical work is the path to happiness-to the most exalted wisdom, "not because of the cold hand of reason and order falsely virtuous but from the hand of the mother of all human passions, the engine of any free and creative life: madness. Yes, though it sounds crazy, right. There is no better invitation to rethink our individual and collective circumstances dare to hear what madness has to say in these very pages of Erasmus. "

Romero García is Professor of Philosophy (Instituto de Profesores Artigas), Professor of Theory and Practice of Argumentation in the Faculty of Engineering and Technology of the Catholic University of Uruguay and was vice president of the Philosophical Association of Uruguay in the period 2007 - 2009, among other charges.

himself in their written especially written for ABC Color and Universal Thought Leaders collection Publishing Reader, also expresses "Desiderius Erasmus (1467-1536) wrote his The Praise of Folly in a social and cultural context began to transform radically in a world that was beginning to shed their medieval era to embrace a new humanism, a revival of the conception of man and his circumstances. This new world has to Erasmus to do largely with a return to life and intellectual characteristics of a past-that of early Christianity, which is presented as the appropriate one to overcome deceit and stupidity of the speeches of the scholars considered of his time. Erasmus, from the mouth of Madness, leaves no puppet head and biting jokes waged against the kings, popes, nobles, monks, among other specimens representatives of reason and wisdom of his time. "

goes on Romero García-author of "day off the mask" (2007) and current host of the point F, the pleasure of thinking, in Radio El Espectador Montevideo: "The mad hunt not waste any and false reason is dethroned to make way for the government of Madness, source of all true wisdom and, finally, of any sanity. Instinct, impulses, vital reason, including our ability foolish and wrong, or what makes us essentially human, regain their place of privilege. And happiness will be achieved by recognizing our human condition in connection with the instinctive vitally, in relation to a free exercise of thought, away from the stuffy dogmas. Thus, the praise of folly is transformed into a praise of freedom, both individually and collectively and in a fertile response to questions which open these lines: What is happiness? How do you get? How do I live a good life? Be the folly of reading this book and probably slightly ahead in such matters. "
