Francesco Giorgi Veneto〔Also called Giorgio, Zorzi.〕 (1466–1540) was a Italian Franciscan friar, and author of the work ''De harmonia mundi totius'' from 1525. The ''Cambridge History of Renaissance Philosophy'' describes him as 'idiosyncratic'.〔p. 357. Also (p. 69) the CHRP talks of Giorgi as a synthesizer of the ''pia philosophia'' of Ficino, and the ''concordia'' of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (along with Henricus Cornelius Agrippa and Paracelsus); on p. 312 he is classed with Ficino and Nicolas of Cusa as subscribing to a macrocosm and microcosm theory.〕 He wrote also ''In Scripturam Sacram Problemata'' (1536). Giorgi is extensively discussed in Frances Yates, ''The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age'' 〔Frances Yates, The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age (1979) chapter 4〕 She also discusses Shakespeare's ''The Merchant of Venice'' in the light of the theory of Daniel Banes that Shakespeare was familiar with Giorgi's and related writings on the ''Cabala''.〔Frances Yates, The Occult Philosophy in the Elizabethan Age (1979) chapter 12〕 A copy of ''De harmonia mundi'' is listed as once in the Library of Sir Thomas Browne. It is possible that Browne's copy was bequeathed to him from Arthur Dee. John Dee is also known to have possessed a copy of Giorgi's work. ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Francesco Giorgi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
