Hermetica: The Greek Corpus Hermeticum and the Latin Asclepius in a New English Translation, with Notes and Introduction
ISBN: 9780521425438 / Angielski / Miękka / 1995 / 408 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Hermetica are a body of mystical texts written in late antiquity, but believed during the Renaissance (when they became well known) to be much older. Their supposed author, a mythical figure named Hermes Trismegistus, was thought to be a contemporary of Moses. The Hermetic philosophy was regarded as an ancient theology, parallel to the revealed wisdom of the Bible, supporting Biblical revelation and culminating in the Platonic philosophical tradition. This new translation is the only English version based on reliable texts, and Professor Copenhaver's introduction and notes make this...

Renaissance Philosophy
ISBN: 9780192891846 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 464 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Renaissance has long been recognized as a brilliant moment in the development of Western civilization. Little attention has been devoted, however, to the distinct contribution of philosophy to Renaissance culture. This volume introduces the reader to the philosophy written, read, taught, and debated during the period traditionally credited with the "revival of learning." Beginning with original sources still largely inaccessible to most readers, and drawing on a wide range of secondary studies, the author examines the relation of Renaissance philosophy to humanism and the universities,...

Peter of Spain: Summaries of Logic: Text, Translation, Introduction, and Notes
ISBN: 9780199669585 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 416 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. For nearly four centuries, when logic was the heart of what we now call the "undergraduate curriculum," Peter of Spain's Summaries of Logic (c. 1230) was the basis for teaching that subject. Because Peter's students were teenagers, he wrote simply and organized his book carefully. Since no book about logic was read by more people until the twentieth century, the Summaries has extensively and profoundly influenced the distinctly Western way of speaking formally and writing formal prose by constructing well-formed sentences, making valid arguments, and refuting and defending arguments in...
