Missing a large section of lower-right quadrantAll Our Maps and Posters Are Made in the USA The essence of the Renaissance Humanism distilled into a single 1585 broadsheet publication. This is an extremely rare, separately-issued educational broadside printed in 1585 by Gerard De Jode, based on the Papal physician Andrea Bacci’s conception of mankind’s place within the Cosmos - Bacci's proposition is noted centrally: 'Homo qui ad universi ordinem conformatus dicitur Μικροκοσμος' The man, who is configured by the order of the universe, is a Microcosmos.An Elegant Expression of Renaissance HumanismThe diagram centers on Man, who by means of his senses and intellect (and by the Grace of God) is able to gather knowledge to comprehend the universe around him. On the left (the direction the figure at the center is facing) the cognitive map describes the process whereby man's senses, intellect, memory, and even fantasy shape the possibilities of his decisions and actions resulting in various virtues, vices, sentiments, and passions. The right-hand portion of the composition (behind our hero's back) depicts cosmography: an earth-centered solar system, explaining the subconscious influences of the planets and the elements (and the humors) on mankind's actions. These conscious and subconscious elements, then, are shown to mold the decision and action interchange.
