Song of Circe & On the Composition of Images: Two Books of the Art of Memory (Collected Works of Giordano Bruno Book 7) 22/08/2020

by Giordano Bruno, Scott Gosnell

( 10 )

$11.99

These works on the Art of Memory bracket Giordano Bruno’s ten year journey through the centers of learning in late 16th century Europe.Song of Circe was written in 1583, near the outset of Girodano Bruno’s career in England as a simplified version of the memory palace technique developed in On the Shadows of Ideas, at the request of his students there. On the Composition of Ideas was Bruno’s last published work in 1591, shortly before he fell into the hands of the Inquisition. Both works demonstrate the phenomenally complex scale and intricacy of the Art of Memory, incorporating the techniques described in Thirty Seals and Thirty Statues to form a truly universal imaginary inner landscape.

Thirty Seals & The Seal Of Seals (Collected Works of Giordano Bruno Book 4) 08/12/2016

by Giordano Bruno, Scott Gosnell

( 15 )

$10.02

Giordano Bruno's third work on the Art of Memory or memory palace consists of a set of seals, which represent data structures for arranging and developing memory images and for processing mental representations and propositions. In this work, he fully combines for the first time both the retrospective Art of Memory and the prospective art of logic and judgment originally developed by Ramon Llull. Appended to this is the Seal of Seals, a discussion of psychological dynamics from a Neoplatonic viewpoint.

THE HEROIC ENTHUSIASTS by Giordano Bruno: Kindle Edition 10/05/2022

by Giordano Bruno

( 3 )

$2.87

This heavily allegorical dialogue by Giordano Bruno is a philosophical discussion of love. At a deeper layer it uses this topic as a mnemonic device to encode a discussion of the nature of the universe, God and the soul. The argument has echoes in Gnostic, Alchemical, Sufi and other esoteric traditions. This translation is one of the few Bruno texts in English translation in the public domain, and original copies of it are extremely rare.

De Umbris Idearum: On the Shadows of Ideas (Collected Works of Giordano Bruno Book 1) 13/11/2013

by Giordano Bruno, Scott Gosnell

( 99 )

$11.99

To memorize anything, distribute vivid, emotionally stirring imagined images around a piece of familiar architecture. This is the method of loci, or memory palace method, first developed in classical antiquity.

Giordano Bruno perfected the art in the late 16th Century. He published a series of books on the subject, beginning with De Umbris Idearum (On the Shadows of Ideas). His work and life would lead him across the major centers of Renaissance Europe, to the patronage of kings and nobles, the scorn and envy of academics, and ultimately to his imprisonment and execution at the hands of the Roman Inquisition in 1600.

Bruno’s works have been reprinted periodically since his death. The current edition is the first complete English translation to be published.

De gli Eroici Furori (Italian Edition) 28/03/2022

by Giordano Bruno

( 3 )

$12.15

De gli eroici furori è un'opera filosofica di Giordano Bruno pubblicata a Londra nel 1585, l'ultima in lingua italiana, con la quale l'autore chiude il ciclo dei dialoghi cosiddetti londinesi, o anche italiani. Scritto in forma dialogica il testo è suddiviso in due parti di cinque dialoghi ciascuna. L'opera appartiene a un genere letterario misto: Bruno presenta infatti un trattato filosofico con largo uso della poesia applicata e di emblemi. Nell'opera, inquadrabile nell'ambito della filosofia contemplativa, Bruno espone la propria visione del rapporto fra uomo e conoscenza. In un universo infinito, animato da un divino onnipresente ma irraggiungibile, l'uomo, che ha come fine più alto la conoscenza della verità e la conseguente azione adeguata, è mosso da una forza che sempre lo sospinge avanti, assimilandolo a un eroe che con passione e a volte con impeto asseconda razionalmente il suo amore infinito.

De la causa, principio et uno (Italian Edition) 30/01/2022

by Giordano Bruno

( 16 )

$3.17

De la causa, principio et uno è la seconda opera in lingua italiana che Giordano Bruno dà alle stampe a Londra nel 1584. Articolata in cinque dialoghi, egli dedica anche questa all’ambasciatore di Francia presso il quale era ospite, Michel de Castelnau. Proseguendo l’esposizione iniziata con La cena de le ceneri, il Ulosofo, sostenendovi l’unità di causa universale e principio universale, elabora una concezione animistica della materia, una materia eterna, inUnita, viva.
“E questa è la differenza tra l’universo e le cose de l’universo: perché quello comprende tutto lo essere e tutti i modi d’essere: di queste ciascuna ha tutto l’essere, ma non tutti i modi d’essere; e non può attualmente aver tutte le circostanze o accidenti, perché molte forme sono incompossibili in un medesimo soggetto, o per esserno contrario o per appartener a specie diverse [...]. Però intendete tutto essere in tutto, ma non totalmente e onmimodatamente in ciascuno. Però intendete come ogni cosa è una, ma non univocamente”.

The Expulsion of the Triumphant Beast 24/01/2022

by Giordano Bruno, Karen Silvia de Leon-Jones, Arthur D. Imerti

( 24 )

$31.77

The itinerant Neoplatonic scholar Giordano Bruno (1548–1600), one of the most fascinating figures of the Renaissance, was burned at the stake for heresy by the Inquisition in Rome on Ash Wednesday in 1600. The primary evidence against him was the book Spaccio de la bestia trionfante, a daring indictment of the church that abounded in references to classical Greek mythology, Egyptian religion (especially the worship of Isis), Hermeticism, magic, and astrology.

The author of more than sixty works on mathematics, science, ethics, philosophy, metaphysics, the art of memory, and esoteric mysticism, Bruno had a profound impact on Western thought.

Il Candelaio (Italian Edition) 07/12/2021

by Giordano Bruno

( 19 )

$4.67

Pubblicata a Parigi nel 1582, Il Candelaio è l’unica commedia di Giordano Bruno. È quasi impossibile riassumere l’articolatissima trama dell’opera, che comunque si configura come una satira corrosiva sulle passioni che confondono la ragione umana. In questa edizione il testo è stato lasciato rispettosamente intatto come nell’originale, con lievissime integrazioni (fra parentesi quadre) laddove indispensabili alla corretta comprensione.
