A book on the religious, mystic origins and substance of
philosophy. This is a critical survey of ancient and modern sources
and of scholarly works dealing with Orpheus and everything related
to this major figure of ancient Greek myth, religion and
philosophy. Here poetic madness meets religious initiation and
Platonic philosophy. This book contains fascinating insights into
the usually downplaid relations between Egyptian initiation, Greek
mysteries and Plato's philosophy and followers, right into
Hellenistic Neoplatonic and Hermetic developments.
