Tales of the Hasidim

Die Erzählungen der Chassidim (Or ha-ganuz)

Retrato de Martin Buber
byMartin Buber

His great collection of Hasidic tales, published by Manesse in 1949 (in Hebrew, *Or ha-ganuz*, 1946–1947). Organised by masters, from the Baal Shem Tov to the rabbis of the nineteenth century, it presents hundreds of short anecdotes and sayings rewritten with a sobriety very different from the ornamental style of his first books. It is the way most Western readers have come to know Hasidism, and the main target of Scholem's critique.
