Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, German Occultist

Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim (1486-1535) was a German magician, occult writer, theologian, astrologer and alchemist. In 1510, he studied briefly with Johannes Trithemius, and Agrippa sent him an early draft of his masterpiece, De occulta philosophia libri tres; a study of elemental, celestial, and intellectual magic. The book discusses the four classical elements, (earth, air, fire, and water), astrology, numbers, angels, gods, mystical names and virtues, and how they relate to medicine and alchemy. During his wandering life in Germany, France and Italy he worked as a theologian, physician, legal expert and soldier. After Agrippa's death in 1535, rumors circulated about him summoning demons and that on his deathbed he released a black dog which had been his familiar.

Descripción:
Traducción automática: Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim (1486-1535) fue un mago, escritor ocultista, teólogo, astrólogo y alquimista alemán. En 1510, estudió brevemente con Johannes Trithemius, y Agripa le envió un primer borrador de su obra maestra, De occulta philosophia libri tres; un estudio de la magia elemental, celestial e intelectual. El libro analiza los cuatro elementos clásicos (tierra, aire, fuego y agua), astrología, números, ángeles, dioses, nombres y virtudes místicos, y cómo se relacionan con la medicina y la alquimia. Durante su vida errante por Alemania, Francia e Italia trabajó como teólogo, médico, jurista y soldado. Después de la muerte de Agripa en 1535, circularon rumores acerca de que él convocaba demonios y que en su lecho de muerte soltó un perro negro que había sido su familiar.
