About This Book

"Unrivaled in its scope The Religious Thought of Hasidism is a veritable encyclopedia of Hasidic religious thought, covering the major themes of Hasidic theological discourse asenunciated by the seminal thinkers of the first three generations, with occasional selections from the later periods.

It provides a detailed sketch of the historical background of the early Hasidic movement and charts its central ideas within the wider intellectual and historical context of Jewish religious and mystical thought."--BOOK JACKET.

"The Religious Thought of Hasidism presents thoroughly annotated translations of selected passages, arranged according to topic. Introductory sections provide an overview and a context for the material in each chapter and a general introduction does the same for the volume as a whole."--BOOK JACKET.
