“…100 As for the institutions of statics and mechanics, contrary to what Robinet asserted, they were clearly influenced by Newton's Philosophiae Naturalis Principia Mathematica, which, we will remember, had been circulating in Rome among the ''ecclesiastici illuminati'' since 1708 thanks to Celestino Galiani's efforts. 101 And here it's worthwhile to remember that Galiani too, only in the year 1717, had taught mathematics in Sapienza free of charge. 102 In Quartoni's mechanics the definitions of ''quantitas materiae'', ''tempus absolutum'' and ''tempora relativa'' are obviously molded on those of Principia.…”

This article focuses ont he reception, circulation and transmission of Jewish narratives on Jesus in early modern Italy. The Italian Peninsula witnessed an important revival of Jewish culture in the sixteenth and seventeenth century, due, among other things, to the influx of Jewish refugees from Spain and Portugal. Italy stood at the junction of the Ashkenazi and Sephardi worlds, acquiring a central role in the dissemination, transmission, and renewed development of polemical traditions, including the Jewish stories on Jesus and the origins of Christianiy known as Toledot Yeshu. I argue that Toledot Yeshu in fact constituted the background of many discussions between Christian and Jews in that context. Almost a third of all extant Toledot Yeshu manuscripts in fact originate from Italy, which thus provides a key site for understanding the place and function of this tradition at a particular time and place.
