Book Description:
Continuing on from his successful Dogme et Rituel de la Haute Magie, in this book Éliphas Lévi traces magic from its ancient origins to the latest developments of the nineteenth century, stressing the importance of magic as a valid science and a compromise between the rational and the mystical.
About the Author:
Alphonse Louis Constant, better know by his pen name Eliphas Levi, was a master of the traditional Rosicrucian interpretation of the Kabbalah. He was born in France in 1810, and through the offices of the parish priest, was educated for the church at SaintSulpice. He was later expelled from seminary for teaching doctrines contrary to those of the Roman Catholic Church. In 1824 Levi began studying the occult sciences, and wrote about magic and the Kabbalah for the next three decades. His other books include "Transcendental Magic", "Mysteries of the Qabalah", and "The Book of Splendours".
