Brossura. Condition: new. Caprie, 2024; br., pp. 493, cm 15x21.(Altra conoscenza). In questo secolo siamo diventati signori della creazione. Sappiamo tutto sulle stelle lontane e sulle più piccole particelle della materia, che Democrito (il saggio che rideva) aveva già chiamato atomi. I nostri studiosi di scienze naturali sono il nostro vanto e loro sono quelli che hanno saputo assicurare il mostruoso primato della tecnologia. L'unica cosa è che adesso stanno lì e non sanno più nient'altro. Ci sono certamente domande a cui soltanto un filosofo potrebbe rispondere. Abbiamo urgente bisogno di un uomo come te, o Platone, che sappia sviluppare la nostra vasta conoscenza parziale in tutti i campi in un sistema armonioso. Il lavoro dei nostri scienziati ha rivelato una mancanza di bellezza. In diversi anni di lavoro hanno trovato il modo di fare a pezzi il nostro intero mondo in un colpo solo. Ci sono adesso, in alcuni paesi, persone sedute a un tavolo con il dito su un pulsante. Se premono questo pulsante, tutto andrà in pezzi e nessuno sopravvivrà alla catastrofe, neanche loro stessi! Libro.

This book is one of the greatest cosmological masterpieces ever written! Eberhard Wortmann is the only know modern Magister Ludi to have corresponded with Hermann Hesse, author of the Glass Bead Game, who in appreciation of his brilliant work called him a "Master Glass Bead Game Player." The Sacred Science Institute is working in conjunction with Wortmann's family to produce English translations of Wortmann's complete works, of which this is the first. Wortmann's works contain hundreds of the most sophisticated diagrams on Sacred Geometry, Pythagorean and Platonic number theory, harmonics, cosmology and astronomy ever seen, as well as one of the most intricate elaborations of universal order and cosmic law in the tradition of the great esoteric mystery schools. The vast and synthetic thinking process presented in these works inspired a correspondence between Hesse and Wortmann discussing the Glass Bead Game. Wortmann says, "Here it should be mentioned that the Platonic riddle of numbers are actually a question of logical games of thought, "Glass Bead Games", as Hermann Hesse, the great writer and man, had named this kind of mental business." But this fascinating work goes beyond describing merely the structure and order of the universe, these Platonic diagrams have been theorized as giving the schematics of the mathematical and geometrical structure of the Soul and subtle bodies. Could this mathematical order within the consciousness of man, the Microcosm, correlated with the grand structure of the cosmos, the Macrocosm, be the Great Secret that Plato hid in his abstract number and geometric riddles? Wortmann things so, and now you can explore these magical and mysterious realms of the highest thought with this new translation.

Wortmann - whose 'Das Gesetz Des Kosmos' (1965) is considered a cosmological masterpiece - corresponded with Hermann Hesse, and was the only modern author to be described by him as a master of the Glass Bead Game. The Sacred Science Institute in America is presently working with Wortmann's family to bring out an edition of his work. The collection is discoloured with age and some leaves are slightly dog-eared, but the whole is in good condition. 'Der Pyramidenbauer' is nineteen A4 pages long, on nineteen leaves, with staple marks and discolouration from paper clips, with a few manuscript corrections, and is written in the form of a short story. The lecture, thirteen A4 pages long, on seven leaves, is more heavily corrected. The intricate diagrams, expounding sacred geometry, most in black and white but with two coloured-in duplicates, would seem to accompany the lecture, and carry 'Tafel' numbers between 3 and 94. The Tafel nos are as follows: 3, 8, 9, 18-20, 24, 27-32, 34, 35, 38-44, 46, 48-51, 54-57, 59, 62, 64, 67-72, 75-78, 82, 83, 85-90, 92-94. On the reverse of most of these plates, in pencil, are the word "Slide"with a number 1-64. These numbers are in sequence (indicating a selection for a speicfic purpose - at least a slide show <lecture) only Slide nos. 2 and 49 missing. Some plates have more than one slide number listed on their reverse (e.g. one has Slides 37-39 inc.). 'Der Kanon des Kosmos' is six A4 pages of photocopies. The manuscript notes are two A4 pages. The envelope is addressed to 'Impress - Werbung | 7750 Konstanz | Bruderturmgasse 4'.
