Abstract	"Giovanni Pico della Mirandola was a philosopher and a poet and an orator as well. His first printed work, published by Eucharius Silber on December 7, 1486, was a strange little book, more a pamphlet really, that comprised nine hundred theses, averaging eighteen words each, many of which he attached to names of the authoritative dead--including ancient, medieval, pagan, Muslim, Christian, and Jewish--on matters such as philosophy, theology, and magic. Readers would have found no backing for these "conclusions," as Pico called them - just hundreds of unsupported statements, which he expected would be debated in Rome by philosophers and theologian from the farthest parts of Italy. Instead of this debate, however, the book drew down the wrath of God through his Vicar on earth, Pope Innocent VIII, and planning for a disputational spectacle stopped. This new English version reflects the infrastructure of Pico's Latin in Greek, Hebrew, and other languages; also his handling of technical terminology in theological argument; and structural features of his prose, like the numerological placement of a conclusion or the repetition of a distinctive phrase to carry a theme"-- Provided by publisher.
