Footnotes

I would like to acknowledge the comments of Professors Hava Tirosh-Samuelson, Daniel H. Frank, and Oliver N. Leaman on earlier drafts of this paper. I am also grateful to the very constructive reviews offered by two readers for HTR. When citing Judah Abravanel's Dialoghi d'Amore, I give the page number of the standard Italian edition of Santino Caramella (Bari: Laterza and Figli, 1929) followed by, in parentheses, the corresponding page number in the English translation of F. Friedeberg-Seeley and Jean H. Barnes, The Philosophy of Love (Dialoghi d'Amore) (London: Soncino Press, 1937). This translation is somewhat outdated, especially in terms of its unwillingness to capture the erotic nature of Judah's Italian. For a more recent critical edition of the Italian text, see Giacinto Manuppella, Dialoghi d'amore (Lisbon: Instituto Nacional de Investigaçao Cientifica, 1983).
