Starting what would be the final series of shiurim in his illustrious 30-year teaching career, Rabbi Zvi Aryeh Rosenfeld made a statement that explained why he had dedicated his life to bringing Rebbe Nachman’s wisdom to American shores. Addressing his audience in a Brighton Beach, New York, synagogue, he said: ...Right now it’s nighttime. It is nighttime—I don’t think anybody will contest that fact. We say it is nighttime, we see it is nighttime, we believe it is nighttime. But I state honestly, truthfully ...that I believe much more that Rabbeinu zal is the tzaddik emes than I believe that it is nighttime now. I am much more positive of that. And that is just the beginning, touching the surface of faith. We must strive for a much stronger faith than that, too. Let’s hope that through this study of Rabbeinu zal’s writings, we will achieve this true degree of faith. Rabbi Rosenfeld went on to deliver a masterful series of shiurim on Sichos HaRan (Rebbe Nachman’s Wisdom), bringing the meaning of the Rebbe’s words directly to the hearts of modernday listeners. Faithfully transcribed, his classes show us how to apply Rebbe Nachman’s guidance for daily living and forge a real bond with the tzaddik emes. With these insights, you, too, can connect to Rebbe Nachman and follow his path to the pinnacle of true faith.

Part of the Jewish Encounter seriesRodger Kamenetz, acclaimed author of The Jew in the Lotus, has long been fascinated by the mystical tales of the Hasidic master Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav. And for many years he has taught a course in Prague on Franz Kafka. The more he thought about their lives and writings, the more aware he became of unexpected connections between them. Kafka was a secular artist fascinated by Jewish mysticism, and Rabbi Nachman was a religious mystic who used storytelling to reach out to secular Jews. Both men died close to age forty of tuberculosis. Both invented new forms of storytelling that explore the search for meaning in an illogical, unjust world. Both gained prominence with the posthumous publication of their writing. And both left strict instructions at the end of their lives that their unpublished books be burnt. Kamenetz takes his ideas on the road, traveling to Kafka’s birthplace in Prague and participating in the pilgrimage to Uman, the burial site of Rabbi Nachman visited by thousands of Jews every Jewish new year. He discusses the hallucinatory intensity of their visions and offers a rich analysis of Nachman’s and Kafka’s major works, revealing uncanny similarities in the inner lives of these two troubled and beloved figures, whose creative and religious struggles have much to teach us about the significant role played by the imagination in the Jewish spiritual experience.

Rabbi Nachman of Bratslav (1772-1810) is widely considered to be one of the foremost visionary storytellers of the Hasidic movement. The great-grandson of the Ba'al Shem Tov, founder of the movement, Rabbi Nachman came to be regarded as a great figure and leader in his own right, guiding his followers on a spiritual path inspired by Kabbalah. In the last four years of his life he turned to storytelling, crafting highly imaginative, allegorical tales for his Hasidim. Three-time National Jewish Book Award winner Howard Schwartz has masterfully compiled the most extensive collection of Nachman's stories available in English. In addition to the well-known Thirteen Tales, including "The Lost Princess" and "The Seven Beggars," Schwartz has included over one hundred narratives in the various genres of fairy tales, fables, parables, dreams, and folktales, many of them previously unknown or believed lost. One such story is the carefully guarded "Tale of the Bread," which was never intended to be written down and was only to be shared with those Bratslavers who could be trusted not to reveal it. Eventually recorded by Rabbi Nachman's scribe, the tale has maintained its mythical status as a "hidden story." With utmost reverence and unfettered delight, Schwartz has carefully curated A Palace of Pearls alongside masterful commentary that guides the reader through the Rabbi's spiritual mysticism and uniquely Kabbalistic approach, ultimately revealing Rabbi Nachman to be a literary heavyweight in the vein of Gogol and Kafka. Vibrant, wise, and provocative, this book is a must-read for any lover of fairy tales and fables.
