Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the 19th-century Wissenschaft des Judentums movement, this book reveals the significant engagement of German Jewish scholars with kabbalistic texts and thinkers, challenging the notion of neglect towards mystic traditions. It provides an overview of the contributions made by key figures such as Landauer, Jellinek, and Graetz, highlighting their rational evaluations of kabbalah and its perceived value within Judaism. Despite their critical stance, the scholars' work reflects a deep concern for the essence of Judaism, beyond personal emancipation and assimilation.
