Renaissance Thought II: Papers on Humanism and the Arts

Renaissance Thought II: Papers on Humanism and the Arts

Paul Oskar Kristeller
0/5 ( ratings)
Professor Kristeller's Renaissance Thought is one of the most valuable books in a valuable series, and readers of his later scattered studies will be glad to have them collected in Renaissance Thought II, a volume that enlarges his already wide domain. He is a prime authority on Renaissance humanism and philosophy and, while he is conversant with all the scholarship, his discriminating and illuminating surveys and inquiries are founded on an extraordinarily comprehensive and minute command of the original materials. - Back cover

Humanism. Humanist learning in the Italian Renaissance --
The moral thought of Renaissance Humanism --
The European diffusion of Italian Humanism --
Platonism and Aristotelianism. The Platonic Academy of Florence --
