Sinopse
David Biale discusses Hasidism: A New History, an important and invaluable history of Hasidism from its origins in the 18th century until the present. We discuss Hasidism and why it matters: Why it was so significant in Europe before the Holocaust and why it remains relevant, what's at stake in declaring it a "modern" movement, and how and why Hasidism helps us understand the currents of modern Jewish history and the modern world at large.
