	Giordano Bruno
		Bruno had been well received at Toulouse, where he had lectured on astronomy; even better fortune awaited him at Paris, especially at the hands of Henri III.
		To many it has seemed a curious freak of Bruno's that he should have so eagerly adopted a view of thought like that of Lull, but in reality it is in strict accordance with the principles of his philosophy.
		Through all this runs the train of thought resulting naturally from Bruno's fundamental principles, and familiar in modern philosophy as Spinozism, the denial of particular providence, the doctrine of the uselessness of prayer, the identification in a sense of liberty and necessity, and the peculiar definition of good and evil.

	"Giordano Bruno and the Infinite Universe" by Warrn Hollister
		Bruno conceived of a universe extending outward infinitely, containing suns without end, each, perhaps, racing through space with its own family of planets; Bruno's cosmos was a bold concept indeed, when compared with the stiffing, enclosed systems of Ptolemy and Copernicus.
		Bruno built his cosmos without the aid of telescopic observation; he even lacked precise naked-eye observations such as those which his contemporary, Tycho Brahe, was then in the process of making.
		It was Bruno, not Copernicus, who introduced to the world the immense universe of modern astronomy with its countless billions of suns shining across space from incredible distances, a universe in which both earth and sun shrink to insignificant size and importance.

	Great Theosophists--Giordano Bruno (23 of 29)
		The Bruno family was a distinguished one, and the child who was to immortalize the name was called Philip, after the lord of the manor.

		Bruno then frankly admitted his inability to comprehend the doctrines of three persons in the Godhead, saying that he considered the Holy Ghost from the Pythagorean standpoint, as the Soul of the Universe.

	The Harbinger. Giordano Bruno
		Giordano Bruno was the bold harbinger of a new cosmology during the Italian Renaissance.
		Bruno's creativity was a result of his freedom from the traditional thought-system grounded in the Aristotelian view of nature and the dogmatic belief-system of the Roman Catholic Church.
		In fact, Bruno the infidel became the greatest philosopher of the Italian Renaissance; he had left the gloom of the monastery and the dogma of the Church for the joy and lifelong inspiration that lay in contemplating the endless wonders of this infinite universe.

	Giordano Bruno - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bruno is known for his system of mnemonics based upon organized knowledge and as an early proponent of the idea of an infinite and homogeneous universe.
		Bruno believed, as is now universally accepted, that the Earth revolves and that the apparent diurnal rotation of the heavens is an illusion caused by the rotation of the Earth around its axis.
		Bruno also affirmed that the universe was homogeneous, made up everywhere of the four elements (water, earth, fire, and air), rather than having the stars be composed of a separate quintessence.

		Bruno answered the sentence of death by fire with the threatening: "Perhaps you, my judges, pronounce this sentence against me with greater fear than I receive it." He was given eight more clays to see whether he would repent.
		Bruno began to be a symbol to represent the forward- looking free-thinking type of philosopher and scientist, and has become a symbol of scientific martyrdom.

	SETI Editorial: The Folly of Giordano Bruno (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
		Taking the name Giordano upon becoming a member of the Dominican order, he was educated in the Aristotelian and Thomist traditions and eventually came to espouse a mystical Neoplatonism mixed with ideas imbibed from a resurgent interest of that time in the works of the apocryphal Hermes Trismegistus.
		The first calls into doubt how closely we should link Bruno with the history of astronomy and what came to be called the "Scientific Revolution", and the second offers a perspective on the undeniable tragedy of his life that make him less of a symbol, but in the balance makes him more human.
		While Bruno was fairly successful for a time at finding powerful and sympathetic patrons to shelter him, he invariably did something to alienate and outrage them, usually fairly quickly after entering their service.

		Bruno, being a skilled Renaissance rhetorician, also devised memory systems of the utmost complexity: In them finally are all that can be said, known, imagined; here are all arts, languages, works, and signs [3].
