Fragen der Sprache in Gershom Scholems frühen Schriften

Shenhav examines Gershom Scholem’s early writings on the question of language (1916–1928) and develops a new methodology for reading the texts of modern Jewish thinking in relation to gender questions. Scholem combines philosophical questions with discussions of Hebrew writing and language. The book confronts his theses with Biblical texts and traditional commentaries, providing a contemporary, inclusive interpretation.
