Hardcover: 200 pages Publisher: McGill-Queen's University Press November 1997 Language: English ISBN-10: 0773516611 ISBN-13: 978-0773516618 Product Dimensions: 9.4 x 6.4 x 0.8 inches Shipping Weight: 1.1 pounds *Product Description* This text is an exploration of Renaissance literature and the importance of a powerful tradition of Christian-Platonist rational spirituality derived from St. Augustine and Nicholas of Cusa. John Spencer Hill argues that this tradition had a formative role in the thought of Renaissance writers by enabling them to assimilate into their world view two central discoveries of the Renaissance - that the universe is infinite and that human existance is bound and regulated by the passage of time.
