Telesio’s thought is emblematic of Renaissance culture in its aspiration towards universality; the volume deals with the roots and reception of his vistas from an interdisciplinary perspective ranging from the history of philosophy to that of physics, astronomy, meteorology, medicine, and psychology. The editor, Pietro Daniel Omodeo and leading specialists of intellectual history introduce Telesio’s conceptions to English-speaking historians of science through a series of studies, which aim to foster our understanding of a crucial early modern author, his world, achievement, networks, and influence.    Contributors are Roberto Bondì, Arianna Borrelli, Rodolfo Garau, Giulia Giannini, Miguel Ángel Granada, Hiro Hirai,  Martin Mulsow, Elio Nenci, Pietro Daniel Omodeo, Nuccio Ordine, Alessandro Ottaviani, Jürgen Renn, Riccarda Suitner, and Oreste Trabucco.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eForeword    Note on Contributors    Introduction   Pietro Daniel Omodeo    1 The First of the Moderns: Telesio between Bacon and Galileo   Roberto Bondí    2 “Spiritus” and “anima a Deo immissa” in Telesio   Miguel Ángel Granada    3 Telesio, Aristotle, and Hippocrates on Cosmic Heat   Hiro Hirai    4 Heat and Moving Spirits in Telesio’s and Della Porta’s Meteorological Treatises   Arianna Borrelli    5 Telesian Controversies on the Winds and Meteorology   Oreste Trabucco    6 Telesio and the Renaissance Debates on Sea Tides   Pietro Daniel Omodeo    7 In Search of the True Nature of the Rainbow: Renewal of the Aristotelian Tradition in the Renaissance and the De Iride   Elio Nenci    8 A Conversation by Telesio: Sensualism, Criticism of Aristotle, and the Theory of Light in the Late Renaissance   Martin Mulsow    9 ‘Haereticorum more leges refellendi suas proponit’.
