On the Art of the Kabbalah: In the Garden of Eden (2/2)

Подробнее о видео

In collaboration with Dr. Justin Sledge from @Esoterica - this is part 2/2 of a series covering the 1517 treatise of the German Humanist and Christian Cabalist Johannes Reuchlin, De arte cabalistica, which was one of the most important texts in the history of Western Esotericism leading up to the publication of Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa's De occulta philosophia libri tres and John Dee's Monas Hieroglyphica. Such a text was widely read and consulted by Elizabethan wizards and Renaissance magi from the 16th century until the present, though today it lies mostly shrouded in obscurity...
