Erasmus was the leading figure of the Northern Renaissance. At a time when Leonardo, Michelangelo, and Raphael were revolutionizing Western art and culture, Erasmus was helping to transform Europe's intellectual and religious life, developing a new design for living for a continent rebelling against the hierarchical constraints of the Roman Church. When in 1516 he came out with a revised edition of the New Testament based on the original Greek, he was hailed as the prophet of a new enlightened age. Today, however, Erasmus is largely forgotten, and the reason can be summed up in two words: Martin Luther. As a young friar in remote Wittenberg, Luther was initially a great admirer of Erasmus and his critique of the Catholic Church, but while Erasmus sought to reform that institution from within, Luther wanted a more radical transformation. Eventually, the differences between them flared into a bitter rivalry, with each trying to win over Europe to his vision.

In Fatal Discord, Michael Massing seeks to restore Erasmus to his proper place in the Western tradition. The conflict between him and Luther, he argues, forms a fault line in Western thinking--the moment when two enduring schools of thought, Christian humanism and evangelical Christianity, took shape. A seasoned journalist who has reported from many countries, Massing here travels back to the early sixteenth century to recover a long-neglected chapter of Western intellectual life, in which the introduction of new ways of reading the Bible set loose social and cultural forces that helped shatter the millennial unity of Christendom and whose echoes can still be heard today. Massing concludes that Europe has adopted a form of Erasmian humanism while America has been shaped by Luther-inspired individualism.

伊拉斯谟是北方文艺复兴的领军人物。当莱昂纳多、米开朗基罗和拉斐尔正在革新西方艺术和文化的时候，伊拉斯谟帮助改变了欧洲的知识和宗教生活，为一个反抗罗马教会等级制度限制的大陆设计了新的生活方式。1516年，当他根据希腊文原著的《新约》修订版问世时，他被誉为新启蒙时代的先知。然而今天，伊拉斯谟已经被人们遗忘了，原因可以用两个词来概括：马丁·路德。作为偏远的维滕贝格的一名年轻修道士，路德起初非常崇拜伊拉斯谟及其对天主教的批评，但当伊拉斯谟试图从内部改革该机构时，路德则希望进行更彻底的变革。最终，他们之间的分歧演变成了激烈的竞争，双方都试图说服欧洲实现自己的愿景……
