It considers the relations between humanists and theologians and between humanism and religion. Modern scholarship on humanism has not taken sufficient account of the deep interest shown by Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) and Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463-1494) in theology and religion. This book presents a detailed and innovative account of Ficino’s De Christiana religione (1474) and of Pico’s Apologia (1487), in the context of explaining the evolution of a humanist theology. The book ends with a consideration of the stormy events of the 1490's, when Girolamo Savonarola (1452-1498) became a leading spiritual and political figure in Florentine public life.Medieval Mediterranean ;v. 78.Christianity and religious humanismHumanismItalyFlorenceHistoryPhilosophical anthropologyTheological anthropologyChristianity and religious humanism.HumanismHistory.Philosophical anthropology.Theological anthropology.274.5/5105Edelheit AmosPh.
