Synopsis
Excerpt from Life of Giordano Bruno, the Nolan
The influence of this courageous thinker on the golden age of English literature has hitherto almost escaped notice. As, however, the existence of invisible celestial bodies is foretold by the perturbations of visible stars, it is interesting to show how, by the shining track of thought, Bacon, Sidney, Marlowe, and perhaps even Shakespeare, are related to an obscure foreign visitor. These resem blances can be traced by a moderately careful study of the Italian works, notably the dialogues Della Cause.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of Giordano Bruno, a philosopher born in Nola, Italy in 1548. Bruno lived through a period of dramatic change in Europe, marked by the rise of the Renaissance, the Reformation, and the Counter-Reformation. His life was deeply intertwined with the Catholic Church, first as a Dominican monk, then as a controversial figure who challenged accepted beliefs. The author explores Brunoââ â¢s intellectual journey, revealing the influences that shaped his philosophical views. Bruno was fascinated by the works of ancient philosophers, particularly Plato, and his writings demonstrate a deep understanding of both classical and medieval thought. He was also a fervent advocate of the Copernican theory, which placed the sun at the center of the universe. Bruno believed in the power of reason and observation, and his work foreshadows the scientific revolution that was to come. This book offers a captivating glimpse into the life and mind of a remarkable thinker whose ideas continue to resonate with readers today.
