Pico della Mirandola, Giovanni (1463–94), Italian nobleman, scholar, and writer on philosophy and religion. Besides being a classical scholar, he knew Hebrew, Aramaic, and Arabic. He was the first to seek in the
Kabbala a clue to the Christian mysteries; he took a generous view of the existence of truth in non-Christian religions and was an early exponent of
syncretism.
