This from Steven Aftergood:
"I have been reading a 2015 book about Gershom Scholem called "From Berlin to Jerusalem and Back" by Noam Zadoff. The book includes the attached photograph taken at Eranos/Ascona in 1952, which made me think of you. It features Scholem on the far right, seated next to Corbin and Stella Corbin. Mircea Eliade is in the center. A Dutch theologian named Gilles Quispel is on the far left. (The man next to him is not identified.)"
If anyone knows who the unknown fellow is please let us know.
Here's a good review of the book in Haaretz:
Finally, This Author Puts the Great Gershom Scholem in Context
A new Hebrew biography is the first to place the philosopher-historian’s remarkable breadth in a historical light, while offering a coherent understanding of his professional and political development.
