Abstract

In this paper I propose to reveal the influence of Giovanni Pico della Mirandola (1463-1494) on the best known and studied work of the spanish kabbalist Abraham Cohen de Herrera (circa 1570-1635), namely, Puerta del Cielo. In our research we take into account, in a special way, the relationships between platonic philosophy and kabbalah, theorized in the texts of both authors.

Keywords: Kabbalah; Platonism; Puerta del Cielo; Cohen de Herrera; Pico della Mirandola
