| Synopsis: |
One of the greatest scholars of the twentieth century, Gershom Scholem virtually created the subject of Kabbalah and Jewish mysticism as a serious area of study. His influence has been felt far beyond the confines of the academy, and extends into the realm of the arts. Literature played a critical part in Scholem's own life. This bilingual volume in English and German gathers together the best of his poems for the first time. It contains dark, shockingly prescient poems about Zionism, parodies of German and Jewish philosophers, and poems to other writers, including a series of powerful lyrics to his close friend Walter Benjamin. |
