It argues that Erasmian humanism created the identity of the universal and critical intellectual, but that this identity undermined the fundamental premises of humanist discourse. It closely reads several works of Erasmus and Thomas More, employing an interdisciplinary approach to the study of intellectual history, and adopting theoretical insights and methodological procedures from various disciplines. 517 3 $aErasmus, Thomas More, and the humanist Republic of Letters 606 $aHumanism$xHistory 606 $aAutonomy (Philosophy)$zEurope$xHistory$y16th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aHumanism$xHistory. 615 0$aAutonomy (Philosophy)$xHistory 676 $a199/.492 700 $aYoran$b Hanan$f1963-$0953670 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910458611503321 996 $aBetween utopia and dystopia$92156365 997 $aUNINA
