Hermetic Philosophy - Earliest European Hermeticism - Crater Hermetis - Ludovico Lazzarelli

Hermetic Philosophy conjures to mind a range of associations from modern initiatory orders to ancient theosophical speculations. But, who was the first truly hermetic philosopher in Europe? You may be surprised that it wasn't Ficino, Pico, Bruno or Dee but the Italian poet Lodovico Lazzarelli (1447-1500) whose work the Crater Hermetis (The Mixing Bowl of Hermes) is also the first true work of Hermetic Philosophy in Europe.
