A variety of concepts emerged in debates about metempsychosis: human to human reincarnation, human to vegetal, human to animal, and human to angelic transmigration. As a complex and changing doctrine, metempsychosis gives us a well-placed window for viewing the complex and dynamic contours of Jewish thought in late fifteenth century Italy; as such, it enables us to evaluate Jewish thought in relation to non-Jewish Italian developments. This book addresses the problematic question of the roles and achievements of Jews who lived in Italy in the development of Renaissance culture in its Jewish and its Christian dimensions. 410 0$aStudies in Jewish history and culture ;$vv. 24. 606 $aTransmigration$xJudaism 606 $aReincarnation$xJudaism 606 $aFuture life$xJudaism 606 $aSoul$xJudaism 606 $aCabala 606 $aRenaissance$zItaly 606 $aPhilosophy, Medieval 606 $aJewish philosophy 615 0$aTransmigration$xJudaism. 615 0$aReincarnation$xJudaism. 615 0$aFuture life$xJudaism. 615 0$aSoul$xJudaism. 615 0$aCabala. 615 0$aRenaissance 615 0$aPhilosophy, Medieval. 615 0$aJewish philosophy. 676 $a296.3/3 700 $aOgren$b Brian$01601638 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910810183103321 996 $aRenaissance and rebirth$93925296 997 $aUNINA
