Throughout the volumes we see a combination of traditional scholastic and more neoplatonist ficinian treatments of a wide range of topics, with allusions to hermeticism and with recourse to Plotinian concepts. The first volume, entitled De Sanctissima Trinitate, deals with the creation of the world and its elements, the knowledge of God, his names and the divine attributes The second volume, entitled De Spiritu Sancto et Angelis, focuses on the Trinity and the angelic intelligences The third volume, entitled De ente, materia, forma et rebus metaphysicis, deals with ontological matters, matter, form, vacuum and space etc The fourth volume, entitled De coelo, zooms in on the heavens, the distinction between lux and lumen and a variety of astronomical and astrological issues The fifth volume, De elementis et descriptione totius orbis, not only deals with physical and geographical issues but also with theological matters, including the role of the church, human passions, historical and geographical elements and autobiographical matters connected with the author's own travels through Europe The sixth, entitled, De immortalitate animae qui est primus Asclepij is properly a commentary on the Asclepius and deals with the human soul, reason, intellect and the anima mundi.

It is not completely clear when and where Annibale Rosselli died. Six parts of this commentary were published in 1584-90. There he began to publish his multi-volume commentary on the Pimander and the Asclepius attributed to Hermes Trismegistus, which amounted to a large summa of philosophical and theological thinking. He then was sent to Poland by the minister general Gonzaga to become professor of theology and philosophy at the Wroclaw studium. He spent some ten years in the Franciscan friary of Montesanto and worked in Rome between 15. He returned to Italy in 1560, first in Turin and later in Cuma, where he visited the alleged cave of the Sybil, possibly to come into contact with/have experience of arcane knowledge which increasingly became a central part of his philosophical interests. Studied in Paris and England (during the Mary interlude?) and in Louvain (between 15). Somewhat later, he entered the Observant Franciscan order in the Umbria province. Received an education in the arts at Taverna, and then studied philosophy at Naples (starting his studies there in 1546). Born in Gimigliano (on August 6 1525?) as the son of Giovanni Battista and Caterina Rosselli.
