Specialist Notes

Second edition of this collection of Platonic essays, edited and translated by Marsilio Ficino. & nbsp; The work, which Ficino dedicated to Cardinal Giovanni de 'Medici, second son of Lorenzo de' Medici, quickly became a fundamental resource for the spread of Neoplatonic philosophy in the Renaissance. The De mysteriis , the main work of Iamblichus, was a response and a defense against Porphyry, who had criticized his religious vision. & Nbsp; Renouard 77.8. Caillet, 5489. UCLA, 131.
