Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the accusation of heresy and its unfounded nature in the case of Renaissance poet Matteo Palmieri and his unfinished work, The City of Life. The author delves into the historical context of the accusations, examining Palmieri's writings to challenge claims of Arianism, Pythagoreanism, and Origenism. The book argues that Palmieri's exploration of Origenist ideas was inspired by the contemporary Platonic Academy in Florence rather than the writings of Origen himself. The accusations against Palmieri, the author suggests, likely stemmed from his attempt to reconcile Platonic philosophy with Christian dogma, notably through his portrayal of the transmigration of souls from heaven to Earth and back. The book sheds light on the complex religious and intellectual landscape of the early Renaissance and provides a nuanced understanding of the interplay between philosophy, theology, and literature.
