Pico della Mirandola Project

The Pico Project provides a resource for the reading and interpretation of Pico della Mirandola’s thought within our contemporary post-humanist context.

Begun in 2002 as a collaboration among scholars at Brown and the University of Bologna, and later extended to contributing scholars worldwide, the Pico Project provides a resource for the reading and interpretation of Pico della Mirandola’s thought within our contemporary post-humanist context. Scholars participating in the project can use the project’s platform to annotate two of Pico’s most influential texts (the Discourse on Human Dignity and Conclusiones Nongentae, aka Nine Hundred Theses) in a collaborative fashion. The project has produced printed editions of Pico’s works in three languages (English, Italian, and Spanish). Editors: Francesco Borghesi (University of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia), Dino Buzzetti (University of Bologna, Emeritus), Michael Papio (University of Massachusetts at Amherst), Ernesto Priani (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico), Massimo Riva.
