Meditations on the Soul

This collection of letters between Marsilio Ficino and the influential figures of European history mixes philosophy and humor, compassion and advice. Praised as one of the most profound thinkers in Western culture, Ficino (1433-1499) was the leader of the Platonic Academy in Florence, and has been a guiding light to spiritual seekers for centuries.

"Marsilio Ficino was at the very fountainhead of some of the most characteristic and influential aspects of the Italian Renaissance."<br />
