Herbert Silberer's examinations of alchemy and the occult, and his
attempts to correlate the two crafts to the pursuit of
psychoanalysis, is published here complete with the original
illustrations. First published in 1917, this text represents the
extensive investigations Herbert Silberer undertook in order to map
occurrences in the occult with the ascendant psychoanalytic
disciplines present in the Vienna School of which he was part. This
text is marked by its depth of research, with sources such as
Hermes Trismegistus, Flamel, Lacinius, Michael Meier, Paracelsus,
and Boehme quoted and drawn upon in service of Silberer's thesis.
The support of alchemy as a spiritual movement, on the same level
as the yoga traditions of the Indian subcontinent, is also notable.
Together with the three original illustrations, this edition also
contains the extensive bibliography and notes of Silberer.
