Description: |
This is a translation of three works by Mirandola: "On the Dignity of Man", a document of early Renaissance humanism; "One Being and the One", a treatise on the relationship between unity and being; and "Heptaplus", an interpretation of the first verses of "Genesis". |
Synopsis: |
Reflecting the broad range of interests of a major Renaissance philosopher and his distinctive brand of syncretism, this anthology offers in their entirety three central works of Pico's. On the Dignity of Man , the quintessential expression of Renaissance humanism, appears in the context of two lesser known but equally representative mature works: On Being and the One , a treatise defending what Pico held to be the agreement between Aristotle and Plato on the relation between unity and being, and Heptaplus , an interpretation, influenced by a blend of cabalism and Christian doctrine, of the first verses of Genesis. New Selected Bibliography. |
