Description

Explore the connection between biblical interpretation and natural philosophy in sixteenth-century Italy. This scholarly work by Andrew D. Berns examines how the Bible was read by educated individuals who did not have formal theological training. By looking at the lives of both Jewish and Christian physicians, the book provides a deeper understanding of how medical expertise was applied during the Renaissance. It reveals how these practitioners used religious literature and the Bible to inform their studies of the natural world. This book expands our knowledge of Renaissance intellectual history. It tracks how physicians used specific intellectual tools to bridge the gap between sacred texts and scientific inquiry. For students and historians of Italy, the Renaissance, or the history of medicine, this text offers a detailed look at the diverse ways religion and science existed together in the sixteenth century.
