Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition 1st Edition
by Frances A. Yates
Placing Brunoboth advanced philosopher and magician burned at the stakein the Hermetic tradition, Yates's acclaimed study gives an overview not only of Renaissance humanism but of its interplayand conflictwith magic and occult practices.
"Among those who have explored the intellectual world of the sixteenth century no one in England can rival Miss Yates. Wherever she looks, she illuminates. Now she has looked on Bruno. This brilliant book takes time to digest, but it is an intellectual adventure to read it. Historians of ideas, of religion, and of science will study it. Some of them, after reading it, will have to think again. . . . For Miss Yates has put Bruno, for the first time, in his tradition, and has shown what that tradition was."Hugh Trevor-Roper, New Statesman
