\ BooknewsThe first English translation, with a new Latin edition, of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola's compilation of what he considered the whole of western thought, including Jewish and Arabic, from the earliest times to his own, which he prepared as background material for a grand debate he planned the next year in Rome. Farmer analyzes the man, times, text, genre, transmission, and other aspects before presenting the Latin original and an English translation on facing pages, which are in turn firmly grounded with footnotes. Names and works are indexed separately from subjects. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknew.com)\ \
