Recorded Scholem lecture

AUDIO: GERSHOM SCHOLEM — ON THE CONFRONTATION OF MAN WITH HIMSELF (1975) (On Being).
This rough archival audio of Gershom Scholem was recorded at the Panarion conference of Jungian thought in 1975 in Los Angeles. In his lecture, he muses on the concept of tselem in Kabbalah, the "plastic image" that describes the individual essence of each human being.
With a transcript.
