Giordano Bruno

""Giordano Bruno"" by Leonardo Olschki is a comprehensive biography of the Italian philosopher, theologian, and astronomer Giordano Bruno. The book explores Bruno's life and work, from his early years in Naples to his travels throughout Europe and his eventual imprisonment and execution for heresy by the Catholic Church. Olschki delves into Bruno's philosophical and scientific ideas, including his belief in an infinite universe and the unity of all things, and examines his influence on later thinkers such as Galileo and Spinoza. The book also provides a detailed account of the cultural and political context in which Bruno lived and worked, shedding light on the intellectual and religious debates of the Renaissance and the Counter-Reformation. Written in a clear and engaging style, ""Giordano Bruno"" is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of philosophy, science, and religion in early modern Europe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
