Claire Hall on Firmicus Maternus

from Podcast episodes – The Secret History of Western Esotericism Podcast (SHWEP) · host Earl Fontainelle

Firmicus Maternus, a fairly prominent fourth-century intellectual from Sicily, wrote two works which survive: one is our earliest-surviving manual of astrological practice in Latin, and it shows a full-blooded belief in astral determinism, and the second is a rabid Christian polemic against traditional religious practices. Discuss.
