Origins of the Kabbalah
Gershom Gerhard Scholem, Allan Arkush et al.BOOKOrigins of the Kabbalah2019
With the publication of The Origins of Kabbalah in 1950, one of the most important scholars of our century brought the obscure world of Jewish mysticism to a wider audience for the first time. A crucial work in the oeuvre of Gershom Scholem, this book details the beginnings of the Kabbalah in twelfth- and thirteenth-century southern France and Spain, showing its rich tradition of repeated attempts to achieve and portray direct experiences of God.…

China Open - China Closed
Open AccessR J Zwi WerblowskyARTICLEDiogenes1994
Forbidden areas, i.e. areas (sites, cities, countries) that are inaccessible for topographical reasons or especially because of decisions based on political, religious, or other motivations are usually surrounded by an aura of mystery and almost necessarily arouse curiosity. The dream of generations of explorers was to reach Lhasa. An area can be closed not only to outsiders but also to "insiders:" nobody is allowed to leave for the "outside." Th…

The so-called "New Religions" of Japan (including the old new [i.e. 19th-century pre-Meiji] the new, the new new and the neo-new) have generated a flood of literature also in Western languages, especially in English. In some ways the explosion of popular, semi-popular, and ac ademic literature on the subject was even more interesting than the New Religions themselves. From the first outburst of general surveys we have now, happily, progressed to …

In nostro tempore
R J Zwi WerblowskyARTICLEReligion1989
The article, whilst paying homage to the insights and perspectives which Eliade has brought to the study of religions, also criticises some of his assumptions, generalisations and methods (e.g. the role attributed to Shamanism, the homologisation of eastern mysticism (‘The Buddhist monk’) and palaeolithic religion, the ahistorical view of history including his mistaken interpretation of ‘cyclical time’ and the role ascribed to an alleged founding…

Contacts of Continents
Open AccessR J Zwi WerblowskyARTICLEDiogenes1988
The problems and the history of contacts between distant continents in bygone ages and long before the age of fast and easy travel, have always fascinated both professional scholars and the interested public. Was ancient history really nothing but the history of co-existing and isolated geographic, cultural and political "islands?" Already at school we learned too much about migrations of peoples, economic contacts, influences on art styles, conq…

The Western Image of Chinese Religion From Leibniz to De Groot
Open AccessR J Zwi WerblowskyARTICLEDiogenes1986
It is not the purpose of this short essay to try the impossible and give an adequate historical survey of the Western image (or rather images) of China. There is, moreover, a vast literature on the subject to which both sinologists and historians of European culture have contributed. The following paragraphs will restrict themselves to two poles in this history: the perception and reception of China in the 17th century (with Leibniz as the most s…

COMMERCE WITH THE SUPERNATURALS (Review article) R. J. Z. WERBLOWSKY Whatever else religion may be, in most cases it is also concerned with man's contacts and intercourse with the supernaturals (plural), or with those less supernatural who can mediate relation- ship with the Supernatural. There are "positive" and "negative" supernaturals (cf. the title of the 1982 meeting of the German Association for the History of Religions "Damonen und Gegen- …
