The study of Renaissance Western esotericism is necessarily interdisciplinary, as it involves the greatest polymaths in history and so calls on similar talents from its scholars.

They labored under the assertion that there was no barrier between 'physical' and 'supernatural', but that all of nature was physical including intermediary intelligences.

They make a startlingly good case.
