Stroumsa.The American historian of ancient religions, Morton Smith (1915-1991), studied with the great scholar of Jewish mysticism, Gershom Scholem (1897-1982), when he was in Jerusalem during the Second World War. After the war, the two started a long, fascinating and at times intense correspondence that ended only with Scholem's death. These letters, found in the Scholem archive in the National Library in Jerusalem, provide a rare perspective on the world and the approach of two leading historians of religion in the twentieth century. They also shed important new light upon Smith's discovery of a letter attributed to Clement of Alexandria referring to a secret Gospel of Mark.Jerusalem studies in religion and culture ;v. 9.296.0922Scholem Gershom Gerhard1897-1982.152301Smith Morton1915-1991.157489Stroumsa Guy G223005MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827494903321Morton Smith and Gershom Scholem, correspondence 1945-19824104886UNINA
