A History of Modern Philosophy, Vol. 1: From the Renaissance to the Present (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A History of Modern Philosophy, Vol. 1: From the Renaissance to the Present
Bessarion. Bessarion was a more temperate admirer of Plato, though he too combated (discreetly) the doctrines of Aristotle, as maintained by George of Trebizond. He considered Plato more in accord than Aristotle with Chris tian dogma. He rejected the Platonic doctrines of the pre-existence of the soul, the plurality of gods, and the world-soul. The chief work of Bessarion is entitled In Calumniatorem Platonis.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book comprehensively examines the development of philosophical thought in the early modern era, a period of intellectual awakening that laid the groundwork for much of contemporary thought. The author traces the various schools of thought that emerged during this time, including those that sought to revive ancient philosophies, those that sought to align with emerging religious movements, and those that pursued philosophical inquiry independent of these influences. The book highlights the significance of this period as one of transition and innovation, fostering a shift from the dominant medieval scholastic approach to one characterized by a focus on the human experience, the natural world, and the exercise of reason. Overall, this book offers valuable insights into the intellectual climate of the early modern period and its profound impact on the development of Western thought. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
