Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa von Nettesheim (September 14, 1486 – February 18, 1535) was a German magician, occult writer, alchemist, theologian, and astrologer.
He is mentioned in Jorge Luis Borges' Labyrinths in the story the Immortal, "Like Cornelius Agrippa, I am god, I am hero, I am philosopher, I am demon and I am world, which is a tedious way of saying that I do not exist."
Where is our Agrippa?
