It is likely that many well-known English writers would have been exposed to the works of Erasmus and Vives ( as well as those of the Classical rhetoricians ) in their schooling, which was conducted in Latin ( not English ) and often included some study of Greek and placed considerable emphasis on rhetoric.

In 1499, while in England, Erasmus was particularly impressed by the Bible teaching of John Colet who pursued a style more akin to the church fathers than the Scholastics.

On his return to Oxford, full of the learning and imbued with the spirit of the Italian Renaissance, he formed one of the brilliant circle of Oxford scholars, including John Colet, William Grocyn and William Latimer, who are mentioned in the letters of Erasmus.

Colet influenced Erasmus, a key figure in Christian humanism.

His methods did much to influence Erasmus, who visited Oxford in 1498, and who later received an annuity from Colet.

Many opinions regarding Colet emerged due to this sermon, in addition to the biographical information described by Erasmus.

While Colet is not as well known a Christian humanist as Erasmus, his writings are reflective of Christian humanism.

Erasmus said of Colet: “ When I listen to Colet it seems to me that I am listening to Plato himself ”.

Scholars believed Colet strongly impacted Erasmus and the English Reformation.

Erasmus stated that Colet was a man for the ages and a true Christian.

Together with Lilye, Erasmus, and Wolsey, Colet produced materials forming the basis of the authorized Latin Grammar, used for centuries in the English schools.

A number of letters from Colet to Erasmus also survive.

This Brevissima Institutio, a sketch by Colet, corrected by Erasmus and worked upon by Lily, contains two portions the author of which is indisputably Lily.

Colet was an outspoken critic of the powerful and worldly Church of his day, a friend of Erasmus and Sir Thomas More.

" Erasmus claimed him as a father / teacher figure and may have actually met him through his own schoolmaster Alexander Hegius ( most probably one of Agricola's students ) at Hegius's school in Deventer.

Erasmus instanced Arion as one of the traditional poet's topics that sound like historia rather than fabulae, though he misremembered that Augustine had taken the Arion story to be historia

Among his pupils was one — Erasmus — whose name alone would suffice to preserve the memory of his instructor in Greek, and others of note in letters and politics, such as Sir Thomas More, Prince Arthur and Queen Mary I of England.

Between 1794 and 1796 Erasmus Darwin wrote Zoonomia suggesting " that all warm-blooded animals have arisen from one living filament ... with the power of acquiring new parts " in response to stimuli, with each round of " improvements " being inherited by successive generations.

Brown's other work included a criticism of Erasmus Darwin's Zoonomia ( 1798 ), and he was one of the first contributors to the Edinburgh Review, in the second number of which he published a criticism of Immanuel Kant's philosophy, based entirely on Villers's French account of it.

The scheme breathed the spirit of the Renaissance ; provision was made for the teaching of Greek, Erasmus praised the institution and Pole was one of its earliest fellows.

Erasmus points out in this presentation that the Treaties 8 and 11 were agreements entered into on the understanding that they recognized the right of the Dene to govern themselves and from which the Dene nation could live separately but in peaceful coexistence with the non Dene people.

Importantly, Erasmus proposes that the contemporary focus should move from an emphasis on “ Aboriginal Rights to relationship between peoples ; from crying needs to vigorous capacity ; from individual citizenship to nations within the nation state .” He suggests that the pursuit of seeking recognition of Aboriginal Rights through the Canadian courts should change because “ Litgation is no way to build a community .” Erasmus reasserts instead, the importance of treaty making as a way forward to build renewed relationships built on “ mutual trust ” and a bond “ like that of brothers who might have different gifts and follow different paths, but who could be counted on to render assistance to one another in times of need .”
