Neo-Hasidism applies the Hasidic masters' spiritual insights-of
God's presence everywhere, of seeking the magnificent within the
everyday, in doing all things with love and joy, uplifting all of
life to become a vehicle of God's service-to contemporary Judaism,
as practiced by men and women who do not live within the strictly
bounded world of the Hasidic community. This first-ever anthology
of Neo-Hasidic philosophy brings together the writings of its
progenitors: five great twentieth-century European and American
Jewish thinkers-Hillel Zeitlin, Martin Buber, Abraham Joshua
Heschel, Shlomo Carlebach, and Zalman Schachter-Shalomi-plus a
young Arthur Green. The thinkers reflect on the inner life of the
individual and their dreams of creating a Neo-Hasidic spiritual
community. The editors' introductions and notes analyze each
thinker's contributions to Neo-Hasidic thought and influence on the
movement. Zeitlin and Buber initiated a renewal of Hasidism for the
modern world; Heschel's work is quietly infused with Neo-Hasidic
thought; Carlebach and Schachter-Shalomi re-created Neo-Hasidism
for American Jews in the 1960s; and Green is the first
American-born Jewish thinker fully identified with the movement.
Previously unpublished materials by Carlebach and Schachter-Shalomi
include an interview with Schachter-Shalomi about his decision to
leave Chabad-Lubavitch and embark on his own Neo-Hasidic path.
