书目名称 | Marsilio Ficino and His World | 编辑 | Sophia Howlett | 视频video | | 丛书名称 | Critical Political Theory and Radical Practice | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | This book makes the case for Marsilio Ficino, a Renaissance philosopher and priest, as a canonical thinker, and provides an introduction for a broad audience. Sophia Howlett examines him as part of the milieu of Renaissance Florence, part of a history of Platonic philosophy, and as a key figure in the ongoing crisis between classical revivalism and Christian belief. The author discusses Ficino’s vision of a Platonic Christian universe with multiple worlds inhabited by angels, daemons and pagan gods, as well as our own distinctive role within that universe - climbing the heights to talk with angels yet constantly confused by the evidence of our own senses. Ficino as the “new Socrates” suggests to us that by changing ourselves, we can change our world. | 出版日期 | Book 2016 | 关键词 | Marsilio Ficino; Renaissance; Philosophy; Plato; 15th Century Italy | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1057/978-1-137-53946-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-137-53946-5Series ISSN 2731-6580 Series E-ISSN 2731-6599 | issn_series | 2731-6580 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2016 |
