Pico Della Mirandola on Trial

Heresy, Freedom, and Philosophy

Beschreibung

Pico della Mirandola On Trial uses Pico's Apology, his self-defence against heresy charges, to show that his work was in no way progressive - or 'humanist' - and that his main authorities were medieval clerics and theologians, not secular Renaissance intellectuals.
