The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age

Autor Frances Yates
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 9 sep 1999
First published in 1999. This is volume VII of ten of the collected works of Frances Yates. This book is a strictly historical study, not an enquiry into ‘the occult’ in general, which I am certainly not qualified to undertake. It includes what was known as ‘the occult philosophy’ in the Renaissance. This philosophy, or outlook, was compounded of Hermeticism as revived by Marsilio Ficino, to which Pico della Mirandola added a Christianised version of Jewish Cabala. These two trends, associated together, form what Yates calls ‘the occult philosophy’.

Recenzii

"In fine, this book is extremely rich in insights, and makes the magical world of the English Renaissance, the world of Raleigh’s “School of Night” and Doctor Dee, accessible. One turns with renewed fascination to books like Sidney’s Arcadia, equipped to understand their mysteries. A dazzling book, which belongs in every occult or literary library." - Mildred Faintly
