This volume provides a comprehensive presentation of the philosophical work of the fifteenth-century Renaissance thinker Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. In essays specially commissioned for this book, a distinguished group of scholars presents the central topics and texts of Pico's literary output. Best known as the author of the celebrated 'Oration on the Dignity of Man', Pico also wrote several other prominent works. They include an influential diatribe against astrology, an ambitious metaphysical treatise attempting to reconcile Platonic and Aristotelian metaphysical views, and writings on a range of subjects such as magic, Kabbalah, the Church, philosophy of religion, and philosophy of knowledge. The first volume of its kind in English, this collection of essays will be of value not only to advanced students and specialists of late medieval and Renaissance thought, but also to those interested in Italian humanism and Renaissance Aristotelianism and Neoplatonism.

"Questo studio si propone di ricostruire i tratti salienti di una teoria coerente e omogenea della magia nei suoi rapporti con la cabbala nel pensiero di Giovanni Pico della Mirandola. Attraverso un esame delle opere redatte tra il 1485 e il 1487, si mette in rilievo il ruolo centrale che la magia naturalis e la scientia cabalae hanno assunto nelle riflessioni del Mirandolano e nel suo progetto di definizione di un sapere universale...."--Inside flap of front cover.

The contributions in this volume discuss Pico della Miranola's treatise "On the salvation of Origen." The writings of Origen were an important source of inspiration for the spiritual upheavals of the Renaissance and of humanism. A fundamental Renaissance text on Origen is the "Oration on the dignity of man" of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463-1494), which was published posthumously in 1486. In this text, freedom is thought of as the vehicle of human existence: man determines, by virtue of his freedom, his own place in the cosmos. This faculty of self-determination establishes man's responsibility for his own actions and determines his dignity. Pico also wrote about Origen in his famous "900 Theses" in 1486, saying that it would be more reasonable to assume that Origin is saved than to assume he is damned. Accused, among other things, of heresy, Pico defended both himself and Origen in the treatise "On the salvation of Origen," the first detailed apology of its kind since antiquity.
