Abstract:
This is the first of two articles describing the influence of al-Ghazālī (d. 1111 c.e.) on Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (d. 1494) and his associate Johanan Alemanno (d. after 1504). The first article concentrates on the influence of Ghazali's The Niche of Lights (Mishkāt al-Anwār), including discussion of its unpublished Hebrew translations.
