It does not concentrate on the Hermetic and Neoplatonic philosophers (Ficino, Pico, Della Porta), or on the relationship between magic and the scientific revolution, but rather upon the interference of the ideas and practices of learned magicians with popular rites and also with witchcraft, a most important question for social and religious history. New definitions of magic put forward by certain unorthodox and ?wandering scholastics? (Trithemius, Agrippa, Paracelsus, Bruno) will interest readers of Renaissance and Reformation texts and history. 410 0$aStudies in medieval and Reformation traditions ;$vv. 125. 606 $aMagic 606 $aRenaissance 615 0$aMagic. 615 0$aRenaissance. 676 $a133.4/309409024 700 $aZambelli$b Paola$033739 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910815917303321 996 $aWhite magic, Black magic in the European Renaissance$94057496 997 $aUNINA
