Originally published in 1935, the aim of this title is first to
give a clear outline of Florentine Neoplatonism, and then to
consider its influence on art and literature during a period that
extends roughly from the age of Lorenzo de' Medici to the middle of
the sixteenth century and the beginnings of the
Counter-Reformation. No rigid divisions of time have been fixed,
but with few exceptions the works discussed may be placed between
these bounds. Even within these limits it would require a work of
greater dimensions that the present to exhaust so large a subject
in all its bearings. The leaven of Neoplatonism had penetrated the
thought of the age in many directions; this study is confined to
such of its manifestations as were, in a somewhat narrow sense,
artistic and literary and to the use and abuse of philosophical
ideas for aesthetic purposes.
