The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age, Volumen7First published in 1999. This is volume VII of ten of the collected works of Frances Yates. This book is a strictly historical study, not an enquiry into 'the occult' in general, which I am certainly not qualified to undertake. It includes what was known as 'the occult philosophy' in the Renaissance. This philosophy, or outlook, was compounded of Hermeticism as revived by Marsilio Ficino, to which Pico della Mirandola added a Christianised version of Jewish Cabala. These two trends, associated together, form what Yates calls 'the occult philosophy'. |

LibraryThing Review
Crítica de los usuarios - PaulBaldowski - LibraryThingInteresting treatment of religion, society, and the occult, marred by Yates' flights of fantasy and tenuous connections in the second part of the book. Leer comentario completo
Review: The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age (Routledge Classics)
Crítica de los usuarios - Graham - GoodreadsI found this in the gift shop of Shakespeare's Globe of all places, and took me the best part of a year to get around to reading it. Readable, fascinating and incredibly illuminating. As useful for the purpose of serious academic learning as it for satisfying an idle curiosity. Glorious. Leer comentario completo
