The Impact of the Kabbalah in the Seventeenth Century

The Life and Thought of Francis Mercury van Helmont (1614–1698)

by Allison P. Coudert

Allison Coudert's Brill monograph examines the extraordinary career of Francis Mercury van Helmont, collaborator on the Kabbala Denudata and friend of Anne Conway, Henry More and Leibniz. She shows how Lurianic ideas, especially transmigration and universal restoration, entered Christian philosophy and early Enlightenment debates. Scholarly and detailed, it suits readers interested in Christian Kabbalah and the intellectual history of early modern Europe.
