Theodorus Gaza (Greek: Θεόδωρος Γαζῆς, Theodoros Gazis; Italian: Teodoro Gaza; Latin: Theodorus Gazes), also called Theodore Gazis or by the epithet Thessalonicensis[2] (in Latin) and Thessalonikeus[3] (in Greek) (c. 1398 – c. 1475), was a Greek humanist[4] and translator of Aristotle, one of the Greek scholars who were the leaders of the revival of learning in the 15th century (the Palaeologan Renaissance).

That Gaza was born in Thessalonica seems clear from the epithet Thessalonicensis (in Latin) or Thessalonikeus (in Greek) found in his own treaties as well as those of Italian humanists.
