Sabbatai Zevi
Scholem is best known for his collection of lectures, "Major Trends in Jewish Mysticism" (1941) and for his biography "Sabbatai Zevi, the Mystical Messiah" (1957). His collected speeches and essays, published as "On Kabbalah and its Symbolism" (1965), helped to spread knowledge of Jewish mysticism among both Jews and non-Jews.
