This volume presents in new English translations the scattered
fragments and testimonies regarding Hermes Thrice Great that
complete Brian Copenhaver's translation of the Hermetica
(Cambridge, 1992). It contains the twenty-nine fragments from
Stobaeus (including the famous Kore Kosmou), the Oxford and Vienna
fragments (never before translated), an expanded selection of
fragments from various authors (including Zosimus of Panopolis,
Augustine, and Albert the Great), and testimonies about Hermes from
thirty-eight authors (including Cicero, Pseudo-Manetho, the Emperor
Julian, Al-Kindi, Michael Psellus, the Emerald Tablet, and Nicholas
of Cusa). All translations are accompanied by introductions and
notes which cite sources for further reading. These Hermetic texts
will appeal to a broad array of readers interested in western
esotericism including scholars of Egyptology, the New Testament,
the classical world, Byzantium, medieval Islam, the Latin Middle
Ages, and the Renaissance.
