This is a new German translation of Erasmus, accompanied by Huizinga’s study on the Dutch painter and poet Jan Veth (1864-1965). Although the biographical account of 1927 offers a polite criticism of the poet, it still recommends to the reading public a deep admiration for Jan Veth’s serious and sincere portraiture.

Johan Huizinga (1872–1945) war Professor für Geschichte an den Universitäten Groningen und Leiden. Er verfasste u. a. die zu Klassikern gewordenen Werke Herbst des Mittelalters (1919) und Homo ludens (1938).
