      • Bernard Dubourg (20 August 1945 – 20 December 1992) was a French poet, professor of philosophy, translator and Hebrew scholar.
      Bernard Dubourg published in Tel Quel and PO&SIE. He wrote several books of poetry, and translated the poetry of J. H. Prynne. He also translated studies of the Samaritans by James Alan Montgomery and Moses Gaster, On the superiority of women by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, and published an annotated translation of the Sefer Yetzirah.
      His two-volume work on the New Testament argued that the Greek text was originally composed in Hebrew, according to the traditional procedures of midrash. Following Paul Vulliaud, Dubourg emphasised the importance of gematria in showing the coherence of his back-translated text.
