En savoir plus sur le livre

Scholem's studies on Kabbalah—the Jewish mystical-theosophical doctrine claiming to be an ancient revelation—offer a fascinating contribution to understanding the history and psychology of Judaism.

Scholem interprets them within a vibrant context of the mystical tradition.
