Behind the Scenes : Discover the censored books in the Erasmus House
Did you know?
The Erasmus House’s rare books collection includes many censored books. Pages torn out, text blackened, names erased… most of these mutilations date back to the end of the 16th century and the 17th century. Erasmus’ controversial ideas became suspect, and even inappropriate, in the context of the religious conflict that divided Europe. But was Erasmus himself a defender of freedom of speech?
