In deifico speculo: Agrippa's humanism
Abstract
The magic of the Renaissance embodies a great meditation on the human condition. This book focuses on the contribution that Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa of Nettesheim made to the philosophical discussion. Agrippa views humankind as a microcosm, created by God in His own image, whose purpose is to bring creation to completion. Soul and body conceal divine powers that each person can rightfully awaken through magical knowledge and miraculous practice. Agrippa’s humanism responds to the spiritual crisis that hit the Christian world in the early modern period. Die Magie der Renaissance verkörpert eine umfassende Meditation über die Würde des Menschen. Laut Agrippa von Nettesheim begünstigt die Wiedergeburt der okkulten Wissenschaften eine Reform der Kultur. In seinen Schriften wird dem Menschen die Verwirklichung der Schöpfung durch magische Weisheit zugesprochen.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
