Opening the Gates of Hasidic Thought: A Fall Symposium

The Princeton Institute for Hasidic Thought invites you to join us on Sunday, November 9 at Princeton University for a symposium exploring the role of Hasidic thought, an eighteenth-century tradition of Jewish mystical and philosophical thought, within the modern intellectual and cultural landscape. Bringing together scholars and students from diverse backgrounds and disciplines, the event seeks to foster an open, dynamic conversation around the enduring significance of Hasidic texts, methods, and ideas. Welcoming both those deeply familiar with the Hasidic tradition and those newly curious, we will ask what it means to engage with Hasidic thought today, how it can contribute to rigorous intellectual inquiry and existential reflection, and how its insights might speak to contemporary concerns in philosophy, spirituality, and education. Our aim is not only to deepen understanding of Hasidism as a historical and religious phenomenon but also to illuminate its potential as a living source of thought and engagement.
