16 janv. 1520 - Gianfrancesco Pico
Description:
Examen Vanitatis Doctrinae Gentium
An attack on pagan philosophy (Aristotle) inspired by Sextus Empiricus, written by Gianfrancesco Pico, a disciple of Savonarola, nephew of Giovanni.
Also influenced by חסדאי קרשקש: "It is curious that Pico della Mirandola includes the material from Crescas, which had not yet been published and only circulated in Hebrew manuscript. He may have gotten a text and its translation from Judah León Abrabanel (c. 1460–c. 1521), with whom he was in contact."
Authority is with prophecy alone.
Pico also wrote "Strix" in defense of a witch hunt.
