Studies in the Platonism of Marsilio Ficino and Giovanni Pico

About Studies in the Platonism of Marsilio Ficino and Giovanni Pico

Fifteen of these essays by one of the leading authorities on Renaissance Platonism explore the complex philosophical, hermeneutical, and mythological issues addressed by the Florentine, Marsilio Ficino (1433-99), who was a distinguished philosopher and pre-eminent Platonist of his time. Two further essays treat of cognate themes taken up by Ficinös younger friend and rival, the dazzling prince of Concordia, Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463-94), who was fascinated by Platonism in his youth but also by other philosophical legacies from the past. This volume¿s initial essay serves as an introduction to the comprehensive phenomenon of Renaissance Platonism.
