Paul of Taranto was a 13th-century Franciscan alchemist and author from southern Italy. (Taranto is a city in Apulia.) Perhaps the best known of his works is his Theorica et practica, which defends alchemical principles by describing the theoretical and practical reasoning behind it. It has also been argued that Paul is the author of the much more widely known alchemical text Summa perfectionis, generally attributed to the spurious Jabir, or Pseudo-Geber.

  • Paul de Tarente, dont l’œuvre est publiée sous le pseudonyme de Pseudo-Geber, est un Franciscain du XIIIe siècle, alchimiste originaire du sud de l'Italie. Il est le découvreur de l'eau régale. (fr)
  • Paolo di Taranto (... – ...; fl. XIII secolo) è stato un francescano e alchimista italiano vissuto verso la fine del XIII secolo. In uno dei suoi scritti è definito «lettore di alchimia in Assisi» presso i frati francescani. La sua identità, sulla base degli studi di William R. Newman, sembra corrispondere a quella dello pseudo-Geber, oggi indicato anche col nome di «Geber latino», autore di un corpus alchemico di cui si presentava come un semplice traduttore in lingua latina.
