In his introductory remarks to Prof. Gershom Scholem's 1957 lectures on Jewish Gnosticism at the Jewish Theological Seminary, Prof. Shaul Lieberman famously quipped, "Nonsense is nonsense, but the study of nonsense is a very important science."
We have appropriated his (in)famous witticism as the masthead of our blog which seeks to present contemporary thoughts on Jewish esoterica and abstrusity as well as estoeric Jewish thinking on the world.
