Synopsis
Contributing Authors

English summary: This volume is a collection of aspects of discussions on an astonishing abundance of scientific, medical, astrological and mythological subjects which are to be found in the writings of the Florentine philosopher, theologian and doctor Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499). The influence his work had on philosophers of the modern age can be explained by the versatility with which he discusses the entire corpus of philosophical literature of antiquity and the Middle Ages that preceded him, and by the topicality of his questioning. The authors of the volume elaborate some of the connections Ficino makes as well as some of his frequently unexpected extrapolations. The individual texts deal with Ficino’s philosophical precursors and sources, Plato’s philosophy and Plotinus’s Neo-platonism (Eugen Dont, Maria-Christine Leitgeb, Thomas Ricklin, Elisabeth von Samsonow, Arbogast Schmitt, Kurt Sier, Kurt Smolak), the interpretation of Ficino’s own writings (Paul Richard Blum, Christine Harrauer, Sergius Kodera, Stephane Toussaint), and finally with the reception of Platonic philosophy in modern age texts which at times is to be found in surprising places (Richard Heinrich, Elisabeth Klecker, Franz Romer). German description: Der Band versammelt Aspekte der Diskussion zu der erstaunlichen Vielzahl von naturwissenschaftlichen, medizinischen, astrologischen und mythologischen Themen, die in den Schriften des Florentiner Philosophen, Theologen und Arztes Marsilio Ficino (1433-1499) begegnen. Die Wirkung, die von seinem Werk fur das philosophische Denken der Neuzeit ausgeht, erklart sich aus der Vielseitigkeit, mit der der Autor das Vorgefundene, die gesamte ihm vorausliegende antike und mittelalterliche philosophische Literatur behandelt und aus der Aktualitat seiner Fragestellung. Einige dieser Verbindungen und oft auch nicht vermutete Weiterfuhrungen von Ficinos Denken werden von den Verfassern herausgearbeitet. Die einzelnen Texte befassen sich mit den philosophischen Vorlaufern und den Quellen Ficinos, mit der Philosophie Platons und dem neuplatonischen Denken Plotins (Eugen Dont, Maria-Christine Leitgeb, Thomas Ricklin, Elisabeth von Samsonow, Arbogast Schmitt, Kurt Sier, Kurt Smolak), mit der Interpretation von Ficinos Schriften selbst (Paul Richard Blum, Christine Harrauer, Sergius Kodera, Stephane Toussaint) und schliesslich mit gelegentlich an uberraschenden Orten begegnender Rezeption platonischen Denkens in Texten der Neuzeit (Richard Heinrich, Elisabeth Klecker, Franz Romer).
