Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Book 4 - Books of the Light of Humanity, the fourth volume of the Bible of Philosophy series, transports the reader to the Renaissance and the beginning of Modern Philosophy, exploring how the rediscovery of the Greco-Latin classics, Humanism and religious reforms transformed the way of thinking and interpreting the world. William Marcos analyzes Humanism, with emphasis on the return to the original sources (ad fontes), the criticism of the religious formalism of Erasmus of Rotterdam, and the role of Renaissance universities and academies in the dissemination of knowledge. Art, science, and philosophy are presented as expressions of human dignity, while humanistic Bible translations and critical editions demonstrate the effort to understand the sacred word with intellectual rigor.The volume also addresses the Reformation and the Counter-Reformation, analyzing central figures such as Martin Luther, who translated the Bible into German, and John Calvin, who consolidated Reformed theology. William Mark explores the importance of the Bible in the post-Trent Catholic liturgy, censorship, and the Index, and the impact of these movements on political philosophy and ethics. The work shows how religious reforms influenced the interpretation of Scripture and provoked debates about freedom, authority, and morality, connecting historical events to the transformations of European thought.The book also investigates the emergence of Rationalism, highlighting Descartes, with his methodical doubt and the Meditations, Spinoza, with the rational pantheism of Ethics, and Leibniz, with the principle of pre-established harmony. Mark shows how these philosophies redefined the relationship between reason, faith, and biblical exegesis, and how religious reactions shaped the reception and interpretation of these ideas. The volume also introduces Empiricism, exploring Locke, Hume, and Berkeley, analyzing their critiques of causality, material substance, and miracles, as well as the impact of natural theology and the use of the Bible as a historical and moral source.Enlightenment and religious criticism are another central focus of the book, with analyses of the works of Voltaire, who denounced religious intolerance; Rousseau, who proposed a natural religion of the heart; and Diderot, whose Encyclopedia became a new temple of reason. Mark shows how these thinkers critiqued clerical dogmatism, promoted new notions of freedom, and examined the Bible from a historical and critical perspective, laying the foundation of modern philosophy.Finally, the volume explores corresponding biblical texts, including Luther's Bible and its cultural diffusion, the Vulgate revised at the Council of Trent, critical first editions and historical commentaries, and the emergence of modern biblical criticism with Richard Simon and Eichhorn. William Mark shows how the Bible, as an object of philological and historical science, continued to inspire and challenge philosophical thought, connecting tradition, reason, and faith.About the author: William Marcos is a psychoanalyst, philosopher, and historian of philosophy. In addition to the Bible of Philosophy series, he is the author of The Philosophers and Freedom, Atlas of Psychoanalysis, Psychoanalysis in 20 Phrases and other works that explore the intersection between philosophy, history of thought and psychoanalysis. His works combine academic rigor, literary narrative, and critical reflection, making philosophical thought accessible and relevant to contemporary readers. This item is printed on demand.
