About this product

Product Information

This series is the first English translation of the letters of the philosopher priest who helped to shape the Renaissance worldview. This volume spans the seventeen months from April 1491 to September 1492. This is a crucial period for Marsilio Fici and Florence itself, for it witnessed the death of Lorenzo the Magnificent. In one of the letters Fici calls him 'the great and god-like Lorenzo'. In a letter to Lorenzo in Volume 1, he had written: 'Almost all other rich men support servants of pleasure, but you support priests of the Muses'.Of the 34 letters in this volume, five are addressed to Martin Prenninger, Professor of Ecclesiastical Law at Tubingen University and counsellor to Count Eberhard. One, the longest in this volume, consists mainly of extracts selected by Fici from his translation of Proclus' commentaries on Plato's Republic.Ather letter to Prenninger gives an insight into Fici's activities in this period: his work with the Divine Names of Dionysius, the preparation of a copy of his Philebus commentary being made for Prenninger, and the reprinting, in Venice, of his translations of Plato's dialogues and the Platonic Theology.Most interesting and intriguing is Fici's response to Prenninger's frequent request to receive a list of his friends, with which he complies, requesting him t to infer any ranking from the order in which they are listed.

It was everything I could have asked for in a colouring book. Some pages were blank, others had ready to colour drawings on the back of the blank pages, and a shiny cover was included at either end. The pages turn smoothly thanks to a clever mechanism built right into book itself. All in all, a very quick and smooth transaction. Appreciate this magic!
