Amphitheatrum aeternae providentiae divino-magicum, christiano-physicum nec non astrologo-catholicum adversus veteres philosophos, atheos, epicureos, peripateticos et stoicos : autore Iulio Caesare Vanino

Vanini, Giulio Cesare · 1615 · apud viduam Antonii de Harsy · 3 pictures

A 1615 Latin philosophical treatise by Giulio Cesare Vanini, published by the widow of Antonio de Harsy and held in the C.G. Jung library, written as a learned work of theology, natural philosophy and astrology aimed at scholars. Its three pictures are a decorative printed cartouche with a grotesque mask and scrolls, a plain circle diagram labelled A and C set in dense type, and a small oval emblem with a butterfly, a heart-shaped motif and the word MATVRA framed by putti, with a handwritten signature beneath, so a designer might draw on its printer's ornaments, geometric diagrams and emblematic framing.
