TOMMASO CAMPANELLA

Picture of Tommaso Campanella

Tommaso Campanella was an Italian philosopher. He was born in 1568 at Stilo and died in 1639. He entered the Dominican order and became the leader of a political conspiracy to expel the Spaniards from Naples, for which he was imprisoned for twenty-seven years. On his release in 1626 by Urban VIII religious persecution drove him to France where he was protected by Cardinal Richelieu, and where he devoted the rest of his life to philosophy. He endeavoured to ground philosophy on experiment and the observation of nature.
