Publisher's Summary
In the vibrant era of the Renaissance, a hidden world of ancient wisdom and profound magic stirred within the hearts of philosophers, scholars, and audacious thinkers. Whispered teachings attributed to the legendary Hermes Trismegistus promised to unlock the secrets of the cosmos, the power hidden within the human spirit, and the pathways to divine transformation.
Journey back to the dazzling age of the Renaissance and delve into the minds of brilliant figures like Marsilio Ficino and Pico della Mirandola. Explore the Hermetic revival of Plato, a philosophy intertwined with the belief in a universal Soul of the World. Uncover the symbolism behind astrology and alchemy, not as mere superstition, but as tools for harmonizing with the forces of the cosmos. Understand the concept of "natural magic" and how Renaissance thinkers believed they could subtly influence the world around them. Trace the legacy of Renaissance Hermeticism through esoteric movements, art, literature, and its enduring influence on how we search for meaning today.
