Summary/Abstract: Prolegomena on the Contribution of the Judaeobyzantine Kabbalah to the Italian Renaissance Humanism: Gilles of Viterbe and the Sefer ha-Temunah. The contribution of the judaeobyzantine culture to the European Renaissance has not been studied systematically. This article try to deal with the context of such relation between Byzantine Jews and the Italian Renaissance. More particularly, the translation from Hebrew into Latin of the Sefer ha-Temunah by Gilles of Viterbes is the visible part of the iceberg! I hope a future study will enlighten this very rich field of study.
