Hasidism Forum: A New History

Hasidism: A Forum

This forum is dedicated to our friend and colleague Professor Tzippi Kauffman who left this world much too early. She submitted her contribution to this forum only weeks before her passing. Her passion, brilliance, dedication to scholarship, and laughter will be remembered always.
