Irenista, calvinista, scettico, o ateo nascosto? Il dibattito
Baldin, Gregorio
2018
Abstract
Among the main topics discussed by Sarpi scholarship, the question of the Servite’s
religious attitude is undoubtedly the most popular. No other topic attracted more interest
and produced such deep disagreement, especially since the rediscovering of his manuscript
Pensieri (whose first trustable edition dates only to 1996). In this essay, I will analyse the
most important interpretations of Sarpi’s attitude towards religion and theology that have
emerged so far. This analysis will open the way for a more direct examination of some of
Sarpi’s texts that have been used to support the different readings of his thoughts. Finally, I
will propose some considerations regarding the possibility to include Sarpi in the history of
early modern atheism.
