À propos de l'auteur

Thomas Willard is Professor Emeritus of English and Honors Professor at the University of Arizona. The author of essays on aspects of medieval and early modern history and literature, he is especially interested in the esotericism found in both religious and scientific texts at a time when the two fields were sometimes hard to separate. His publications include an English translation of the alchemical writings of Jean d'Espagne (Garland, 1999).
