How does Erasmus' work fit into the historical context of the Renaissance Papacy and the early (pre-Lutheran) calls for reform within the Church?

The answer should be 100ish words, please thanks

He was one of the greatest scholars of the
renaissance time. Erasmus contributed to the
Renaissance by revising ancient works and
translating them into Greek and Latin such as
the Bible. Erasmus also contributed to the
Reformation by calling for reform in the Church
through his various satirical works.
