Renaissance Magic and the Return of the Golden Age
Books | Literary Criticism / General
John S. Mebane
"Mebane offers an excellent discussion of the crosscurrents of Renaissance philosophies of the occult and their impact upon Marlowe, Jonson, and Shakespeare. His review of Hermetic, cabalistic, and Neoplatonic theories will guide new students; his review of pertinent scholarship, especially that of Frances Yates, will aid the scholar."-Choice
