By most accounts, Elie Wiesel began to study Kaballah when he was 12 years old. Mr. Wiesel has said he was influenced by his maternal grandfather, who was deeply involved in Hasidism; he was also taught about the Jewish mystical tradition by a man named Moshe, a caretaker at the synagogue the Wiesel family attended in the town of Sighet, Rumania. Even years later, after he had survived the Holocaust, and gone on to study Philosophy at the Sorbonne in Paris, Mr. Wiesel remained fascinated by Jewish mysticism, and it became a prominent influence on his writings.
