Sažetak
At the last years’ ’Days of Frane Petrić’, the authoress pointed at the marked presence of texts written by an eleventh-century Greek philosopher, Michael Pselus. Petrić included Pselus’ texts on Chaldean and Assyrian ’dogmas’ and on Zoroaster into the appendices of his Nova de universis philosophia, in both the original and in the Latin translation (Zoroaster et eius CCCXX oracular chaldaica. Eius opera e tenebris eruta et Latine reddita, Ferrara 1591 and Venice 1593), and in Latin only in a separate edition of a part of the appendices (Magia philosophica hoc est Zoroaster et eius CCCXX pracula chaldaica, Hamburg 1593). As six more Pselus’ texts, obtained in Cyprus, used to be in Petrić’s collection (these texts, together with the published ones, must have helped Petrić formulate his own teaching) this paper deals with the influence of the founder of Byzantine Neoplatonism on Petrić. With Pselus, Petrić shared an ’obsession with magic’, interest in the occult and in Oriental philosophy, and also the will to reconcile Christian thought with Hellenic tradition and Neoplatonic mysticism. The authoress also stresses the importance of these first editions of Pselus’ treaties for subsequent affirmation of his ideas (especially through Pletho’s commentaries) in the West.
