Giordano Bruno | History | Research Starters | EBSCO Research
pGiordano Bruno was an Italian philosopher, mathematician, and cosmologist who lived during the Renaissance. Born in 1548 in Nola, Italy, Bruno initially entered the Dominican Order, where he adopted his new name and began his intellectual journey. His early life was marked by a profound curiosity, leading him to explore diverse philosophical traditions, including Neoplatonism and the works of Aristotle and Plato. However, his unorthodox views soon placed him at odds with the Church, ultimately resulting in his decision to flee the monastery in 1576./p
