From the National Library of Israel website: The Gershom Scholem Collection is the only institution in the world that holds an almost-complete collection of sources and studies in the fields of Kabbalah, Hasidism and Sabbatianism, Jewish mysticism and general mysticism.
The collection houses some 35,000 items relating to the study of Jewish and general Mysticism. The core of the collection is from the personal library of the late Professor Gershom Scholem. This collection is unique, embodying the personal library of one of the most important intellectuals of the twentieth centuries, and one of the most passionate collectors of Jewish books. Combining extraordinary knowledge with great love.
The collection includes substantial thematic sections devoted to the Heichalot literature, Ashkenazi Hasidism, the Zohar and accompanying commentaries, Lurianic Kabbalah, Hasidism, Sabbatianism, twentieth-century Kabbalah, Jewish philosophy, Midrashic literature, the Dead Sea Scrolls, Christian, Islamic and Eastern mysticism, Zoroastrianism, Gnosticism, Hermeticism, Alchemy, Astrology, Myth, Magic, German literature, the works of Franz Kafka, Walter Benjamin, Martin Buber, and so forth.
Alongside rabbis, Kabbalists and interested readers, the collection is also visited each year by dozens of researchers in the Kabbalah and Judaism from throughout the world, who draw on the collection in order to complete their studies.
The Gershom Scholem Collection functions as a global center for the study of Kabbalah and Hasidism, and is considered by outstanding researchers in Israel and around the world as the best source of information and fruitful dialogue in its core subjects. The Collection also functions as a “living museum,” commemorating Scholem’s life and thought as the embodiment of the blossoming of study of the Kabbalah and modern Jewish thought in the twentieth century.
