Episode description
Scott Gosnell joins me for an amazing conversation about Giordano Bruno's work, in particular On Magic and Thirty Statues, which he just finished translating and publishing. Our conversation dives into Bruno's art of binding and his suggestions on how to bind entire cities. We also get into the crazy world of the Florentine Renaissance and explore the stories of Savonarola and Machiavelli.
