Legend has it that when preparing props for the James Bond film
Live and Let Die, producer Albert Broccoli commissioned Surrealist
maestro Salvador Dali to create a custom deck of tarot cards.
Inspired by his wife Gala, who nurtured his interest in mysticism,
Dali eagerly got to work, and continued the project of his own
accord when the contractual deal fell through. The work was
published in a limited art edition in 1984 that has since long sold
out, making Dali the first renowned painter to create a completely
new set of cards. Drawing on Western masterpieces from antiquity to
modernity (including some of his own), Dali seamlessly combined his
knowledge of the arcane with his unmistakable wit. The result is a
surreal kaleidoscope of European art history. TASCHEN resurrects
all 78 cards in a fresh celebration of Dali's inimitable custom
set, complete with a booklet by renowned German tarot author
Johannes Fiebig offering: an introduction to Dali's life and the
project's making-of a comprehensive explanation of each card's
composition, its meaning, and practical advice step-by-step
instructions on how to perform readings a jargon-free approach

Fons Vitae is dedicated to preserving in print for future generations the extraordinarily important work of Titus Burckhardt, who devoted his life to the exposition of Universal Truth, that wisdom "uncreate" in the realm of metaphysics, cosmology, and sacred art. In addition to Burckhardt's Alchemy: Science of the Cosmos, Letters of a Sufi Master, and Moorish Culture in Spain, Fons Vitae is honored to add to the series Sacred Art, East and West, Mystical Astrology according to lbn 'Arabi, and Mirror of the Intellect. An eminent Swiss metaphysician and scholar of oriental languages, Titus Burckhardt (1908-1984) devoted his life to the timeless and universal wisdom present in Sufism, Vedanta, Taoism, Platonism, and the other great esoteric and sapiential traditions. Though an art historian like his great uncle, the renowned Jacob Burckhardt, his main interest was the spiritual use and meaning to be found in Eastern and Western art and architecture, and the expression of the sacred in the lives of saints. A unique work, providing the underlying spiritual principles (from the point of view of one of the greatest Sufi masters who ever lived) lacking in most modern books of astrology. It will complement and deepen anyone's personal library or collection of works on astrology.
