Marsilio Ficino

Metaphysics

Marsilio Ficino lived from 19 October 1433 to 1 October 1499 and was an Italian scholar and Catholic priest, one of the most influential humanist philosophers of the early Italian Renaissance. He was an astrologer, a reviver of Neoplatonism in touch with the major academics of his day, and the first translator of Plato's complete extant works into Latin; his Florentine Academy, an attempt to revive Plato's own Academy, influenced the direction and tenor of the Italian Renaissance and the development of European philosophy.
