Abstract

In this conference Cassirer presents the philosophical dimension of the transition from the old late-medieval conception of astrology, to the modern conception of astronomy. This process, which reaches its peak in Johannes Kepler’s work, is investigated in its intimate dialogue with the philosophical and scientific tradition, pointing, precisely, to the more general elements that indicate a new form of understanding the world: the understanding as the creator of nature. Although it is among his lesser-known texts, Kepler’s place in European intellectual history presents itself as a rich example of his interest in the theme of the transition to modernity and in the theme of mystical-astrological thought, a direct reflection of his contact with the intellectual community in Hamburg, especially with the Bibliothek Warburg.
