Neʼeḥaz ba-sevakh. English Untold tales of the Hasidim : crisis & discontent in the history of Hasidism / David Assaf ; translated from the Hebrew by Dena Ordan. Waltham, Mass. : Brandeis University Press ; Hanover : University Press of New England, ©2010. 1 online resource (xxiii, 336 pages) : illustrations. text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier The Tauber Institute for the study of European Jewry series Includes bibliographical references and index. This fascinating volume reveals some of the dark, dramatic episodes concealed in the folds of the hasidic cloak--shocking events and anomalous figures in the history of Hasidism. Using tools of detection, Assaf extracts historical truth from a variety of sources by examining how the same events are treated in different memory traditions, whether hasidic, maskilic, or modern historical, and tells the stories of individuals from the hasidic elites who found themselves unable to walk the trodden path. By placing these episodes and individuals under his historical lens, Assaf offers a more nuanced historical portrayal of Hasidism in the nineteenth-century context. Print version record.
