The Renaissance conception of an animistic universe; operated by magic, prepared the way for the conception of a mechanical universe, operated by mathematics. in this sense; Bruno's vision of an animistic universe of innumerable Worlds through which run the same magico-mechanical laws, is a prefiguration, in magical terms, of the seventeenth-century . vision. But Bruno's main interest was not in the outer world but in the inner world. And in his memory systems we see the effort to operate the magico-mechanical laws, not externally, but within, by.reproducing in the psyche the magical mechanisms. The translation of this magical conception into mathematical terms has only been achieved in our own day. Bruno's assumption that the astral forces which govern the outer world also operate within, and can be reproduced or captured- htere to operate a magical-mechanical memory, seems to bring one curiously close to the mind machine which is able to do so much of the work of the human brain by mechanical means. The Art of Memory, in the 14th century is: followed by Robert Fludd, who is in the Rena ssance:tradition, . and also by thinkers who are taking it In new directions, Bacon, Descartes, Leibniz.
