Kabbala Denudata

Knorr's two-volume Latin anthology: the Zohar's Sifra di-Tzeniuta, Idra Rabba and Idra Zuta, extracts from Cordovero's Pardes Rimmonim, and Lurianic material largely by way of Bacharach's Emek ha-Melekh, with lexicons and dissertations.

THE BOTTLENECK. For two centuries this was how Europe read the Kabbalah — a translation, an anthology and an argument at once. Mathers' Kabbalah Unveiled is a translation of this, not of the Aramaic.
