Heptaplus or Discourse on the Seven Days of Creation by Pico della Mirandola
Publication: 1977 Philosophical Library; first edition of the Jessie Brewer McGaw translation
Pico was one of the first Renaissance philosophers to integrate Jewish Kabbalah into Christian thought, laying the foundations for Christian Cabala and influencing the Western occult tradition. In the Heptaplus, he interprets Genesis through seven levels of meaning, the correspondence between man, the cosmos and the divine.
