Description
Summary:Guillaume Bude, the great French humanist, is regarded here as the thinker who focused his reflection principally on the civilization of his time: the double renaissance of secular and sacred studies, with the potential conflict implied by this cultural duality. His philosophical essays, though written in an often complex and disconcerting style, investigate every possible aspect of adapting secular science and eloquence to the service of Christianity. His was a unique attempt to justify Christian humanism and to base the unity of the spirit on an authentic philosophy of culture.
