Description

Explore the historical connections between celestial study and occult practices in this scholarly collection. Astrology and Magic from the Medieval Latin and Islamic World to Renaissance Europe brings together ten significant papers by Paola Zambelli. This volume provides deep insight into the intellectual landscape of the era, including four papers published in English for the first time. The collection is divided into two distinct parts for organized study. Part I examines the theoretical foundations of the era, covering the ideas of Renaissance thinkers, concepts of universal history, cycles of catastrophe and rebirth, and myths regarding the spontaneous generation of humanity. Part II shifts focus to the practical application of these studies, looking at the actual roles astrologers held within Renaissance society, including their work as political counsellors. This Variorum Collected Studies volume serves as a vital resource for historians and researchers interested in how astrology and magic shaped the transition from the medieval period through to the Renaissance. It offers a comprehensive look at both the abstract theories and the real-world influence of these practices in early modern Europe.
