Hardcover. Condition: New. 1st Edition. Seattle, WA: Ouroboros Press / Ars Obscura Bookbinding, 2006. New (see image) / Limited to 275 Copies Only. From the Publisher : "Handbound in full burgundy leather with gilt titles and device, false-raised cords, marbled endsheets and a silk ribbon bookmark, also from the venerable studio…s of Ars Obscura Bookbinding. Called also The Book of Truth in the Art and the Third Pythagorical Synod, An Ancient Alchemical Treatise Translated from the Latin by Arthur Edward Waite. Known unto the Wise as the Crowd of Philosophers, this twelfth century treatise records the meeting of the Hermetic Association for the Advancement of Alchemy and gives voice to the alchemical wisdom of several centuries. From Pythagoras to the Thrice-Greatest Hermes, the Adepts converse on the keys of the Royal Art and the nature of the Magnum Opus in their pursuit of the Philosopher's Stone. Arthur Edward Waite s translation of the Turba Philosophorum remains the most complete to date due to the fact that he examined the many variant Latin manuscripts. There were two versions of the Turba: a short version and a long version, and in cases where textual differences occurred, Waite was sure to note them. This new edition has retained those important words of wisdom. This Limited Edition produced by Ouroboros Press continues the tradition of fine bookmaking by resetting the type and offering three distinctive binding styles". Limited Edition/Hand Numbered/Expanded. Hard Cover/Full Leather/Sewn. New. 8vo size - over 8¾" tall.

NEW / From the Publisher (see image) : "Trade Cloth Edition : Gilt-stamped cloth over boards in letterpress printed dust jacket. Over thirty alchemical texts in 528 pages. Illustrated, bibliography &…table of obscure words. This complete edition of the Theatrum Chemicum Britannicum goes beyond the mere reprinting of the original pages as past facsimiles have done. Using the original errata sheets provided by Ashmole, the entire text has been corrected and reset in a more readable typeface and features clear reproductions of the original engravings produced by Robert Vaughan. In addition, this edition features a more complete version of the Breviary of Natural Philosophy by Thomas Charnock by employing a complete manuscript of the text not available to Ashmole in 1652. This is the most ambitious publishing project embraced by Ouroboros Press in its years of laboring to bring source works of western esotericism to scholars and collectors alike. Over a dozen individuals and institutions worked hard to bring the book into this complete and corrected edition. This is fine esoteric book arts at its best, a volume Elias Ashmole himself would be proud of. Robert Vaughan Engravings, John Goddard, et al. Alchemical Engravings, Ornamental Grotesques, Dragons, Trees, and Fleurons. Includes an 11 x 14 Folding Plate Titled George Ripley's Wheel [John Goddard's Diagram] With Rubricated Title PageThe Theatrum Chemicum Britannicum is a major collection of English alchemical texts which encapsulate the arcana of the Magnum Opus in poetic form. Originally gathered from several rare medieval manuscripts by Elias Ashmole, the text represents the largest collection of verse treating of the production of the Philosopher s Stone to be brought together in one volume. Ashmole s pride in English literature is amplified by the consideration he gave to the project. In deciding which texts should be included in the book he details ancient British examples among the Druids & the Bardic Tradition and explains that poesy is much better than mere verse. Here we find well known names in the alchemical corpus among whom are included; Thomas Norton, George Ripley, Geoffrey Chaucer, John Daston, Pearce the Black Monke, Richard Carpenter, Abraham Andrews, Thomas Charnock, William Bloomefield, Edward Kelley, John Dee, Thomas Robinson, William Backhouse, John Gower, John Lydgate, W. Redman and several anonymous authors. This who's who of English alchemists is placed in historical context by a Prolegomena by Ashmole, which supports his thesis that England may be proud of its alchemical literary heritage. In addition Ashmole has provided ample annotations and commentary to each of the texts as supplementary material in the concluding chapter of the book. The text has a new introduction by William Kiesel and a full bibliography of alchemical and bibliographic materials used in researching the text". The Complete and Corrected Edition.

NEW / Rosencreutz Edition - Full scarlet leather with raised spine bands gilt title and Rose Cross device. Handmarbled endsheets and silk ribbon bookmark. Limited to 120 copies only. Title in Full - "The Rosicrucian Manifestos :… The Foundation Documents Of The Brotherhood Of The Rosy-Cross Being the Fama and Confessio Fraternitatis to which is appended A Letter from the Brothers of R. C. Concerning the Invisible, Magical Mountain, & the Treasure therein Contained." From the Publisher (see image) - "Early in seventeenth century Germany two anonymous manuscripts were in circulation which would cause a stir in intellectual and spiritual communities in Europe with calls for reformation and a focus on the Hermetic-Cabalist tradition. The manuscripts were finally printed as the Fama Fraternitatis and Confessio Fraternitatis and told the story of the founding of a mysterious society; the Brethren of the Rosy Cross, which eschewed religious dogma and called for the study of Alchemia, Magia and Cabala. Considered a ludibrium by many, including the supposed author Johann Valentin Andreae who later said he wrote them as a youthful jest , the Manifestos nonetheless ignited a firestorm of controversy which resulted in the rise of many forms of Rosicrucianism. Some of these movements have come down to us today in the form of magical orders such as the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, the Builders of the Adytum or AMORC, now based in San Jose California. As the Master Therion wrote in Liber LXI vel Causae concerning purported Rosicrucian manuscripts; You will readily understand that the genuineness of the claim matters no whit, such literature being judged by itself, not by its reputed sources. Seventeenth century Europe was expectant of political and religious change as two new stars appeared in firmament as discussed by Johannes Kepler in his De Stella nova in pede Serpentarii; De Stella incognita Cygni, which was printed in Prague two years after the stars appeared in 1604. This unique celestial event, depicted in the Temple of the Rosy Cross print, fortified the call for political and spiritual renewal trumpeted by the manifestos. This invisible college, as the Rosicrucian Order was sometimes refered to, is represented in the print as a temple on wheels under the shadow of the wings of the Lord. Schweighardt was a supporter of Rosicrucian ideas, but he was by no means alone in these endeavours as his reference to Julianus de Campis [wielder of the sword] shows. Of course there were other supporters such as, Michael Maier, Robert Fludd and Thomas Vaughan, the latter causing to be printed the first English edition of the Manifestos. The Rosicrucian Manifestos describe the early life of Christian Rosencreutz, his pilgrimage to the East in search of occult knowledge and his eventual founding of the mysterious Brothers of the Rosy Cross. The enigmatic and axiomatic writing style places the texts firmly into the western esotericism and includes critiques upon the closed minds of society, be it political, religious or intellectual and includes the legend of the founder CRC and gives very detailed descriptions of the Hidden Symbolical Vault wherein the secrets of the order were secured along with the body of Christian Rosencreutz laid in restful repose under an Everburing Lamp. The appended Letter from the Brothers of R.C. describes the Invisible Magical Mountain of the Adepts, how to get there and what to expect while visiting ". Limited Edition.

NEW / Limited to 75 copies only, Hand-bound by Ars Obscura Bookbinding. From the Publisher (see images) - Full black leather, handbound with gilt title and device, raised spi…ne bands, marbled endsheets and silk bookmark. Aviary folding plate. Fine typography with emblematic ornaments. Limited to 75 copies only. Jocus Severus was originally published in 1617 by Count Michael Maier and is here rendered into the English tongue from the Latin text by the remarkably able translator Darius Klein. Like his work on Giordano Bruno's Cantus Circaeus, this is the First English Translation. In addition to the new translation, the Ouroboros Press edition of Jocus Severus distinguishes itself by employing new emblematic illustration work by Benjamin A. Vierling, who in keeping with our publishing style has produced fine illustrative ornaments and a fold-out plate depicting the aviary creatures of the text. These graphic elements complement the typographical details with an effect befitting a piece of fine Renaissance book art. Michael Maier is well known in the historical milieu of alchemy due largely to his important work on alchemy and music, Atalanta Fugiens, yet his other works have remained obscure and unobtainable until now. An excellent biography of Maier can be found in the work of Hereward Tilton, The Quest for the Phoenix: Spiritual Alchemy and Rosicrucianism in the Work of Count Michael Maier (1569-1622). In the foregoing work, Tilton indicates the thrust of the Jocus Severus thus: The Jocus Severus takes the form of a court of judgment upon the bird of wisdom sacred to Pallas Athena, the Owl in this instance embodying chemia as the highest science. The Owl stands accused of a number of misdemeanours by an assembly of squawking and cantankerous birds, who represent the various critics of chemia. Council for the defense is the Hawk; presiding over the court is the Phoenix, the symbol of the Work's perfection . . . . After facing her fellow birds accusations, the Owl and her Art are eventually vindicated by the Hawk's expert defense, and she is adjudged Queen of the Birds by the Phoenix". First English Language Edition. Hard Cover/Full-Leather/Sewn. New. Illus. by Benjamin A. Vierling "Illustrative Ornaments and A Fold-out Plate Depicting The Aviary Creatures Of The Text". 8vo size - 8¾" tall.
