This study, based on a fresh reading of the entire correspondence, the surviving orations, declamations and other relevant treatises, contains an innovative interpretation of the philosophical and theological thought of Henry Cornelius Agrippa of Nettesheim (1486-1535).The first chapters contain a close study of his controversy with the scholastic theologians, which Agrippa carried on throughout his life, particularly with the theologians of Louvain University. Detailed analyses of Agrippa's declamations are included in the second part of the book.The chapter on the humanist declamation offers a new approach to the interpretation of rhetorical texts in the heyday of learned humanism in Northern Europe; in this context, special attention is paid to Agrippa's indebtedness to Erasmus. Throughout the book, Agrippa emerges as an important intermediary between scholasticism and humanism, and a strong opponent of the professional theologians of his time.… (mehr)

Agrippa's beloved wife died during the black death, as he and his disciple were one of the last ones to stay in diseased places, attempting to find a cure to the illness that took his wife and the lives of others. It seems that Agrippa, attempting to justify his non-scholastic position among theologians, was cursed by the very scholasticism which his religion thrived upon and thus as an ardent believer, was cursed by this community as a devil. It is when from within the ranks of a given society one tries to intensionally contradict their foundations. Agrippa mightily approached a topic that was altogether scorned by these inquisitors of their own incapacity, the latter pointing their fingers on others. He sought ways to the Divine via occult methods, via sacra and via occulta. He would fair better as an honest sorcerer seeking platonic ways to the Divine, than wasting his efforts on wrestling with a religion on its own basis, yet that is the very essence of his scholarship. In his case, it was impossible to keep an interest in the occult and ancient ways, the love of the feminine at the same time reconciling it with doctrines that rejected all that. A tragic person of an age in which he could not do otherwise. The book is masterfully surveying his theological positions in a historical context. He should be known as a feminist of his time, as he wrote a work praising the female sex. A humanist wrapped in theological, liberative ardor. People such like him paved way for Giordano Bruno. Mary Shelley (1797-1851) introduced Agrippa as the first guide in natural philosophy to her creation Victor von Frankenstein, not without a reason. ( )
