Nicholas of Cusa (Nicolaus Cusanus), the 15th-century church lawyer, bishop, and cardinal, fascinates up to this day as an independent mind. His original scholarly work emerges from a critical distance to the scholastic universities of his age. At the same time his writing is inspired by thorough knowledge of theological, philosophical and spiritual traditions and by acquaintance with the mathematical and scientific innovations of his age and the practical upheavals of his time. Eight original contributions to the volume provide an up-to-date introduction to the relevant historical contexts of Cusanus' works and to Cusanus' significance for contemporary thought. Moreover, a bio-bibliographical introduction facilitates the access to the resources that are available for study and research on this extraordinary scholar and his multifaceted work today.
