Описание
Итог:French humanists and reformers around 1500 drew upon ancient and twelfth-century practices of reading numerologically, in an effort to recover a rich mode of doing philosophy rooted in Christian scriptures. This article is chiefly exploratory, setting out this programme’s sources, practices, and aims within the circle of Jacques Lefèvre d’Étaples, comparing to the influential projects of the Modern Devotion, Marsilio Ficino, and Pico della Mirandola. The article centres on some examples of how this hermeneutic practice looked in action, before closing with the idea that conceptual ambition made it vulnerable to the mounting pressures of the early French reformation.
