The Corpus Hermeticum is a collection of 17 Greek treatises attributed to the legendary Hellenistic figure Hermes Trismegistus, a syncretic combination of the Greek god Hermes and the Egyptian god Thoth. The treatises were originally written between c. 100 and c. 300 CE, but the collection as known today was first compiled by medieval Byzantine editors, and translated into Latin in the 15th century by Marsilio Ficino (1433–1499) and Lodovico Lazzarelli (1447–1500).
