"A Dialogue or Communication of Two Persons" by Desiderius Erasmus is a discussion that dives into religion and belief during a time of change. It looks closely at pilgrimages and the importance people place on holy objects. The conversation between Menedemus and Ogygyus questions whether these practices are truly devout or just for show, challenging what society considers normal in the world of faith.
