First from French

English translations of this work exist from another source language, but this specific text has never been translated.

The work 'Dialoghi d'amore' by Leone Ebreo (Jehuda Abrabanel) was originally written in Italian. While English translations of the work exist (e.g., the 1937 translation by Friedeberg-Seeley and Barnes, and the 2009 translation by Perry and Burgess), these are translations from the original Italian. The 1595 edition in question is a French translation of the Italian original. There is no evidence of an English translation made specifically from this French text. Therefore, this is a 'first from source' case.
