Over the past generation, scholars have devoted increasing
attention to the diverse forms that Jewish mysticism has taken both
in the past and today: what was once called "nonsense" by Jewish
scholars has generated important research and attention both within
the academy and beyond, as demonstrated by the popular fascination
with figures such as Madonna and Demi Moore and the growing
interest in spirituality. In Jewish Mysticism and Kabbalah, leading
experts introduce the history of this scholarship as well as the
most recent insights and debates that currently animate the field
in a way that is accessible to a broad audience. From mystical
outpourings in ancient Palestine to the Kabbalah Centre, and from
attitudes towards gender to mystical contributions to Jewish
messianic movements, this volume explores the various expressions
of Jewish mysticism from antiquity to the present day in an
engaging style appropriate for students and non-specialists alike.
