description: This 6-volume collection selects the best 19th-century studies on Giordano Bruno (1548-1600), the most famous Italian philosopher of the Renaissance. It was during that period that the pioneering scholarly work on Bruno was written, much of which continues to be the basis of current Bruno studies. The set includes English, German, Italian and French works, gathering the texts that mark the first thorough modern interpretations of Bruno after the debates of the preceding centuries. Offering a rounded, comprehensive assessment of Bruno, they include accounts of his life, comparison of his thought with Nicholas of Cusa, a full record to his works, a study of his Latin works, and of the unpublished writings, and an examination of the influence upon him of medieval and Renaissance thinkers.
