Giordano Bruno's visit to Elizabethan England in the 1580s left its
imprint on many fields of contemporary culture, ranging from the
newly-developing science, the philosophy of knowledge and language,
to the extraordinary flowering of Elizabethan poetry and drama.
This book explores Bruno's influence on English figures as
different as the ninth Earl of Northumberland, Thomas Harriot,
Christopher Marlowe and William Shakespeare. Originally published
in 1989, it is of interest to students and teachers of history of
ideas, cultural history, European drama and renaissance England.
Bruno's work had particular power and emphasis in the modern world
due to his response to the cultural crisis which had developed -
his impulse towards a new 'faculty of knowing' had a disruptive
effect on existing orthodoxies - religious, scientific,
philosophical, and political.
