This work is in two parts: in the first one, called "The Doctrine of Transcendental Magic", we establish the kabalistic and magical doctrine in its entirety; this here, the second part, is consecrated to the cultus, that is, to Ceremonial Magic. The one is that which the ancient sages termed the Clavicle, the other that which people on the country-side still call the Grimoire. The numbers and subjects of the chapters which correspond in both parts, are in no sense arbitrary, and are all indicated in the great universal key, of which we give for the first time a complete and adequate explanation. Let this work now go its way where it will and become what Providence determines; it is finished, and we believe it to be enduring, because it is strong, like all that is reasonable and conscientious. Contents: Introduction Chapter I - Preparations Chapter Ii - Magical Equilibrium Chapter Iii - The Triangle Of Pantacles Chapter Iv - The Conjuration Of The Four Chapter V - The Blazing Pentagram Chapter Vi - The Medium And Mediator Chapter Vii - The Septenary Of Talismans Chapter Viii - Warning To The Imprudent Chapter Ix - The Ceremonial Of Initiates Chapter X - The Key Of Occultism Chapter Xi - The Triple Chain Chapter Xii - The Great Work Chapter Xiii - Necromancy Chapter Xiv - Transmutations Chapter Xv - The Sabbath Of The Sorcerers Chapter Xvi - Witchcraft And Spells Chapter Xvii - The Writing Of The Stars Chapter Xviii - Philtres And Magnetism Chapter Xix - The Mastery Of The Sun Chapter Xx - The Thaumaturge Chapter Xxi - The Science Of The Prophets Chapter Xxii - The Book Of Hermes

The Hermetic Museum was published in Latin at Frankfort, in the year 1678, and, as its title implies, it was an enlarged form of an anterior work which, appearing in 1625, is more scarce, but, intrinsically, of less value. Its design was apparently to supply in a compact form a representative collection of the more brief and less ancient alchemical writers; in this respect, it may be regarded as a supplement to those large storehouses of Hermetic learning such as the Theatrum Chemicum, and that scarcely less colossal of Mangetus, the Bibliotheca Chemica Curiosa, which are largely concerned with the cream of the archaic literature, with the works of Geber and the adepts of the school of Arabia, with the writings attributed to Hermes, with those of Raymond Lully, Arnold de Villa Nova, Bernard Trevisan, and others. This is volume 1 out of 2. Contents: Preface To The English Edition. The Preface Of The Original Edition. The Golden Tract The Golden Age Restored: The Sophic Hydrolith A Brief Exposition Of The Wonderful Water Stone Of The Wise, Commonly Called The Philosopher's Stone. A Demonstration Of Nature, A Short Tract, Or Philosophical Summary The Only True Way; The Glory Of The World; The Third Part Of This Treatise, Containing The Dicta Of The Sages.

Etliche Spielfilme von Wim Wenders kreisen insgeheim, in einer hermetischen Bildersprache, um Gestalten der antiken Mythologie. Der verkappte Held gleich dreier seiner Filme ist der trickreiche Hermes, der sich in unterschiedlicher Manier und Absicht als moderner 'Seelenführer' zu bewähren hat. Auch Heroen und Götter der »Odyssee« holt Wenders quasi vom Sockel, setzt sie als unsere Zeitgenossen in Szene und lässt sie mit unterschiedlichem Erfolg agieren. Zu bewundern ist eine künstlerisch eigensinnige, so ernste wie witzige »Arbeit am Mythos«, die Wenders seit Jahrzehnten quasi ohne öffentliche Resonanz durchgehalten hat.

Es war ein sonniger, klarer Tag mit ruhiger, nahezu glatter See, und dieses Mal war es nicht die Natur, die zuschlug, sondern die Tücke des Objekts: die Ruderkette der "Isabella" brach, und damit war sie manövrierunfähig. Es wurde ein Wettlauf mit der Zeit, denn an der Kimm tauchte der erste Verfolger auf - die englische Karavelle "Hermes", deren Kommandant wild darauf war, den verdammten Seewölfen das Fürchten zu beizubringen. Und hinter der "Hermes" segelte die Kriegsgaleone "Albion", ein Brocken von Schiff mit einer Armierung, wie sie sich jeder Festungskommandant gewünscht hätte. Was der Seewolf vermeiden wollte, das traf jetzt ein: Er mußte sich zum Kampf stellen...

The Virgin of the World is one of the most prominent Hermetic books, one of the last monuments of Paganism. The Fragments comprised in this reprint have been the subject of much learned research. In the early centuries of Christianity they enjoyed a high repute as of undoubted genuineness, the Fathers invoking their testimony on behalf of the Christian mysteries, while Lactantius--the "Christian Cicero"--said of them, "Hermes, I know not how, has discovered well-nigh the whole truth." He was regarded as an inspired revealer, and the writings which bore his name passed for genuine monuments of that ancient Egyptian theology in which Moses had been instructed. And this opinion was accepted by Massilius Ficinus, Patricius, and other learned men of the Renaissance, who regarded them as the source of the Orphic initiations and of the philosophy of Pythagoras and Plato.
