Does there exist a form of speech so powerful as to allow the speaker to control the listener, taking over their thoughts and even their will? Renaissance prodigy and polymath Giovanni Pico della Mirandola - the uncontested marvel of an age of true wonders - believed that there was. 'The Grammar of Angels' tells how Pico dedicated his short, brilliant life to finding a philosophy that would settle the most important questions about human existence.
