Aprašymas

"Keeping the Mystery Alive (...) demonstrates the extent to which Kabbalah is a broadly shared yet differentially expressed trope in Jewish Latin American literature of the late twentieth and early twenty-fi rst centuries. Huberman's reading offers a refreshing break with the prevalent 'Borgesian model' for understanding the engagement with Kabbalah in Latin American culture. The book discusses Kabbalah as a lived experience, as a psychological language of emotional development, as a mode of connection to one's ancestors, and as a markedly visual expressive field. Huberman's deeply multidisciplinary scholarship will certainly interest readers in the fields of Latin American literature, visual art, and culture, as well as readers in

the fi elds of Jewish literature and culture."
