    description: <em>La cena de le Ceneri</em> (The Ash Wednesday supper), the first of <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">giordano</u> <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u>’s six Italian philosophical dialogues, was first published in London in 1584. The title page indicates neither the place of publication nor the publisher, but scholars agree that the book was printed at the London shop of John Charlewood. The work is dedicated to the French ambassador to the English court, Michel de Castelnau, sieur de la Mauvissière, who assisted <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u> after his arrival in London in 1583. The book is divided into five dialogues and is preceded by an introductory letter. It presents an innovative exposition of the Copernican heliocentric theory, one going beyond the theory of Copernicus, which still held that the universe was finite and composed of a sphere of fixed stars. <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u> posited an infinite and homogeneous universe (both spatially and materially), without a center, embracing an infinite number of worlds and innumerous solar systems. <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u>’s theories constitute a link between certain conceptions descended from the natural philosophy of the Presocratics with the discoveries of contemporary science. Before he left the cloth in 1576, <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u> had been a monk in the Dominican monastery of San Domenico Maggiore in Naples. After adventurous wanderings all over Europe, <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u> came back to Italy in 1591. He was put under arrest by the Inquisition and, after a long trial, was pronounced an “impenitent heretic” and eventually burned at the stake in Campo de’ Fiori in Rome on February 17, 1600. Having been excommunicated also by the Calvinists and the Lutherans, <u style="background-color:yellow;" class="">bruno</u>, one can say, was rejected by all Christian churches of his time. <br>Celestial bodies; Copernicus, Nicolaus, 1473-1543; Cosmology; Solar system
