De Arte Cabbalistica

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

De Arte Cabbalistica is a 1517 text by the German Humanist scholar Johann Reuchlin, which deals with his thoughts on Kabbalah. In it, he puts forward the view that the theosophic philosophy of Kabbalah could be of great use in the defence of Christianity and the reconciliation of science with the mysteries of faith. It builds on his earlier work De Verbo Mirifico.
