Major trends in Hekhalot literature research

MAJOR TRENDS IN HEKHALOT LITERATURE RESEARCH are summed up in an article by Shlomo Brody in Text and Texture:
"The Aleinu Prayer and the Pardes Story: Major Trends in Hekhalot Literature Research"
It's a good summary overall, although it leaves out some of the most recent discussion. I have noted some additional bibliography in a comment.
