Review # 1 was written on 2016-06-11 00:00:00 Harlan Arnold Ernst Cassirer provides a nuanced analysis and historical account on the development of Renaissance thought on the individual's relation to the Cosmos. Focus is especially dedicated to the Italian mystic, Nicholas Cusanus. The two final topics dealt with Freedom & Necessity, and the Subject-Object Problem.

Review # 2 was written on 2013-02-28 00:00:00 Dallas Norman My favorite text on the philosophy of the Renaissance (and the preceding Middle Ages). Cassirer rewards over and over again. I've been through this text three times and I keep finding more treasure.
