Robert Fludd (1574-1637) was a true 'Renaissance Man', Qabalist and alchemist, scientist and philosopher, astrologer and musician. His voluminous, richly illustrated writings covered the entire range of practical, scientific, divinatory and speculative thought known at the time, all of which were combined into an integrated universe infused with divine spirit. This collection contains selections from all of Fludd's published works.
William H. Huffman, Ph.D., is a native of St. Louis, Missouri, and presently resides in Charlotte, North Carolina. His lifelong interest in esoteric thought led him to doctoral studies in the history of philosophy, focusing on Platonism, and a concentration on the Renaissance Hermetic tradition. Under the inspiration of Frances Yates and others, he completed a study of Robert Fludd and the End of the Renaissance, published in 1988.
