De arte cabalistica <Latin> (1553) is a book by Johannes Reuchlin.

Abstract

In the dialogue, Simon the Jew affirms the existence of the "lost" Book of Enoch, while he regrets that he cannot afford, like Giovanni Pico della Mirandola, to buy at great expense the "seventy books of Ezra." The suggestion that Pico knew 1 Enoch, however, is unlikely, as Pico seems rather to have acquaintance only with cabalistic traditions on Enoch.
