The article Giordano Bruno and the women analyzes those works from Candelaio to Furori in which Bruno deals with the subject of women. The originality of his interpretation emerges, separating women from the role of procreation, and revealing the creative power of infinite matter. Thus the female role embraces a complex dialectic between amorous attraction, in all its many aspects, and the elevation of knowledge, realized by real women that Bruno had met and loved during his life, in the interweaving of philosophy and autobiography that distinguishes his thought and his works.

Abstract

The article Giordano Bruno and the women analyzes those works from Candelaio to Furori in which Bruno deals with the subject of women. The originality of his interpretation emerges, separating women from the role of procreation, and revealing the creative power of infinite matter. Thus the female role embraces a complex dialectic between amorous attraction, in all its many aspects, and the elevation of knowledge, realized by real women that Bruno had met and loved during his life, in the interweaving of philosophy and autobiography that distinguishes his thought and his works.
