📗 Libro en inglés A TO Z OF THE OCCULT

A guide along the pathways of the occult in an attempt to bring the hidden into full view. “The knowledge of the hidden” — that is the meaning of the Latin word “occultus” from which we take our modern term, “the occult.” Why is it that this subject stirs up so much controversy? Is the answer present in that very definition: the idea that studies into the occult are pushing at the very boundaries of human knowledge? This simple-to-follow A-Z guide reveals the details of investigations into the occult as well as the truth about occultists who, from the earliest times, have attempted to remove the veil that shrouds “the knowledge of the hidden.” • What were the world’s greatest occultists — including Plato, Nostradamus, Isaac Newton and William Blake — searching for? • What are the true origins of alchemy? • What secret knowledge is concealed within the tarot deck? • Was the infamous Aleister Crowley really “the wickedest man in the world?” • Did the Ancient Egyptians believe in magic?
