Department of French and Italian, University of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona, USA Abstract. Immanuel Romano (also known as Manoello Giudeo), a near-contemporary of Dante Alighieri, introduced into Hebrew poetry the sonnet, whereas in Italian-language poetry he was one of the poeti giocosi, specialists of humour. Apart from his Italian sonnets, he is known because of the Bisbidis, a poem (a frottola) of 212 short lines in praise of his patron, the ruler of Verona, Cangrande della Scala.
