520    This is the first full-length study of the Heptaplus, the 
       commentary on the creation narrative of "Genesis 1" by the
       celebrated Italian philosopher Giovanni Pico della 
       Mirandola. It focuses on Pico's theory of allegory. This 
       theory was fundamentally dissimilar to mainstream medieval
       and Renaissance approaches to biblical interpretation. 
       Rather than use the standard four senses of Scripture, 
       Pico adopted an esoteric hermeneutic stance characteristic
       of Neoplatonic and kabbalistic exegesis, and developed an 
       allegorical theory based on epistemology and the idea of 
       intellectual ascent. The exploration of this theme makes 
       it possible not only to interpret the Heptaplus in 
       relation to Pico's other works, but also to assess its 
       role as a response to the contemporary philosophical 
       controversy surrounding the intellect.
