Giordano Bruno and the Hermetic Tradition

by Jesse Russell

Description

This illuminating study explores Giordano Bruno’s thought through the lens of the Hermetic tradition that shaped Renaissance philosophy, magic, religion, and cosmology. It examines how Bruno drew on ancient Egyptian wisdom, Neoplatonism, and occult symbolism to develop a daring vision of an infinite universe and a transformed relationship between humanity and the divine. The book places his controversial ideas within the intellectual and religious conflicts of his age, offering insight into both his philosophical ambitions and his enduring significance in the history of ideas. Rich in historical context, it is an engaging portrait of a radical thinker at the crossroads of science, magic, and faith.
