Biographical Dictionary of Freethinkers
Jacobus Acontius (Giacomo Aconzio)
Born at Trent early in sixteenth century. After receiving ordination in the Church of Rome he relinquished that faith and fled to Switzerland in 1557. He subsequently came to England and served Queen Elizabeth as a military engineer. To her he dedicated his Strategems of Satan, published at Basle 1565. This was one of the earliest latitudinarian works, and was placed upon the Index. It was also bitterly assailed by Protestant divines, both in England and on the Continent. An English translation appeared in 1648. Some proceedings were taken against Acontius before Bishop Grindall, of the result of which no account is given. Some passages of Milton’s Areopagitica may be traced to Acontius, who, Cheynell informs us, lived till 1623. Stephen’s Dictionary of National Biography says he is believed to have died shortly after 1566.
