A complete history of alchemy revealing the subject as much more
than the attempts in early science of turning base metals into gold
or silver, this book goes about intimating the mystical experience
underlying hermetic symbolism. It outlines some of the 'secret'
inner meanings to alchemy - symbolism, metaphysics, and
spirituality. This book contains a universe of information and is
worthwhile reading for anyone wanting to know more on this engaging
subject. Originally published in 1926.
Arthur Edward Waite (1857 1942), mystic and historian, was an
influential figure in the occult revival of the nineteenth century.
Brought up a devout Catholic, he became increasingly involved in
spiritualism in his late teens following the death of his sister.
Choosing not to enter the priesthood, he pursued instead his
interests in occult philosophy. A translator and editor of several
alchemical texts in the 1890s, Waite also wrote several histories
of magic in his later years. First published in 1902, the present
work establishes Kabbalah's significant influence on
nineteenth-century occultism. The book chronicles the history of
Kabbalist practice from its ancient Hebrew origins to its effect on
other branches of the occult, including Rosicrucianism,
freemasonry, hermeticism and tarot. Waite also connects noted
occultists to Kabbalah, including Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa,
Paracelsus and Eliphas Levi.
Born Alphonse Louis Constant, French magician Eliphas Levi
(1810-75) wrote prolifically on the occult sciences. His Histoire
de la magie was first published in 1860. In it, Levi recounts the
history of the occult in Western thought, encompassing its
biblical, Zoroastrian and ancient Greek origins, various magical
practices of the medieval and early modern periods - including
hermeticism, alchemy and necromancy - and the role of magic in the
French Revolution. The last section of the book describes
nineteenth-century magical practices and includes details of Levi's
own occult experiences. Prepared by Arthur Edward Waite
(1857-1942), this English translation was first published in 1913.
An editor and translator of numerous magical texts, Waite includes
here a preface comprising an eloquent defense of Levi and
intellectual magic. The original French edition is also reissued in
the Cambridge Library Collection.
Born Alphonse Louis Constant, French magician Eliphas Levi
(1810-75) wrote prolifically on the occult sciences. His hugely
popular Dogme et rituel de la haute magie, published in French in
1854, was translated into English by Arthur Edward Waite
(1857-1942) in 1896. In the present work, Waite condenses Levi's
two volumes into one. The first part outlines Levi's theory of the
doctrine of transcendent magic and discusses a wide range of
magical phenomena, including bewitchment, Kabbalah and alchemy. The
second part focuses on the practical aspects of ritual and ceremony
in Western occult philosophy. Waite, a mystic and occult historian,
edited several alchemical and magical texts for publication in the
wake of the mid-nineteenth century occult revival. His translation
is accompanied by a preface outlining Levi's colourful career. The
original two-volume French edition is also reissued in the
Cambridge Library Collection.

The Book of Black Magic is Arthur Edward Waite's magnum opus of
occult lore; this edition contains the author's original icons,
symbols, seals and drawings. This supreme guide to occultist
history, lore, magick, and ceremony is split into two parts: The
first is entitled ""The Literature of Ceremonial Magic."" Here,
Waite examines the ritualistic traditions which surrounding the
occult movement for centuries. He notes various texts, and how
these had a bearing upon the practice of the occult and of magical
ceremony. The second part, ""The Complete Grimoire,"" concerns how
those who practice black magic and occult ritual become versed in
the craft. The stringent physical and mental requirements, and the
need to practice a spiritual attunement and inner ablution, is
detailed. Astronomical knowledge of the planets and their movements
is a necessity, as is possession of a variety of instruments, plus
a deep knowledge of the various symbols and scripts used in
occultism.
This early work by Arthur Edward Waite was originally published in
1911 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory
biography. 'The Pictorial Key to the Tarot' is a classic work that
details the significance of the various cards in the tarot deck and
how to read them. Arthur Edward Waite was born on the 2nd of
October, 1857 in America. Waite was a scholarly mystic who wrote
extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator
of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As his biographer, R.A. Gilbert
described him, "Waite's name has survived because he was the first
to attempt a systematic study of the history of western occultism -
viewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of
proto-science or as the pathology of religion."
