| Description: |
Trained as a canonist, Nicolas of Cusa first made his mark in political thought. Later he became a bishop, a papal legate, a cardinal, and an original philosopher and theologian. His ideas of learned ignorance and coincidence of opposites still attract attention today across a wide variety of disciplines: church history, political theory, interfaith matters, philosophy, theology, mysticism, spirituality, humanism, cosmology, and mathematics. This volume offers separate chapters that introduce Nicholas of Cusa’s vocabulary, ideas, and works on a wide variety of topics. It also provides a guide to his works in Latin, English and other languages, all the secondary literature on each topic treated, a glossary of Cusan terms and ideas, and a guide to Cusan societies, sites, libraries, and museums. |
