Scholem, Messianic Idea, pages 176-202

"The creative power of Hasidism was centered on the mystical life, on the revival of the Jew in exile." So writes Scholem at the end of his essay on the "neutralization" of the Messianic idea in Hasidism. How did Hasidism take up the the Lurianic teaching about the "uplifting of the holy sparks" and reinterpret it so as to give it a non-Messianic interpretation? How does this reinterpretation lead to the view, as quoted on page 190, that "Every man is the Redeemer of a world that is all his own"?
