Book Synopsis Il Libro Della Magia I by : William Wraithe
Download or read book Il Libro Della Magia I written by William Wraithe and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2010-01-29 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Back in 2002 Mr. Wraithe had produced a manual of Magick that surprised even the oldest of veterans in the craft. A book so powerful that it was banned for almost six straight years because of the nature of the spells listed within. He has put together 113 of the most powerful spells ever combined for everyone who wishes to practice in the forbidden regions of magick, whether they be on the dark or light paths of the spectrum. This book was only available for a very limited time back in 2002 and then taken off the shelves in 2003 due to the massive effects the spells created. For the first time in a long and overdue six years, I present to you Il Libro Della Magia Book 1 of the Magia Series.
Book Synopsis Music and Esotericism by : Laurence Wuidar
Download or read book Music and Esotericism written by Laurence Wuidar and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-05-15 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of essays analyzes the relationships that exist between esotericism and music from Antiquity to the 20th century, investigating ways in which magic, astrology, alchemy, divination, and cabbala interact with music. The volume seeks to dissolve artificial barriers between the history of art, music, science, and intellectual history by establishing an interdisciplinary dialogue about music as viewed against a specific cultural background. The synthesis of scientific and historical contexts with respect to music, explored here on a large scale for the first time, opens up a wealth of new approaches to music historical research, music performance, and musical composition. Each chapter presents either a unique example of music functioning within esoteric and scientific traditions or a demonstration of the influence of those traditions upon selected musical works. L’ouvrage analyse les relations entre l’ésotérisme et la musique de l’Antiquité au 20ème siècle étudiant comment la magie, l’astrologie, l’alchimie, la divination et la cabale ont interagit avec la musique. Il vise à dépasser les frontières entre l’histoire de l’art, l’histoire de la musique et l’histoire des sciences et des idées afin de nouer un dialogue interdisciplinaire sur la musique autour de contextes historiques et scientifiques précis. L’ouvrage offre une première synthèse sur les rapports entre ésotérisme et musique ainsi que diverses pistes de recherche à poursuivre.

Book excerpt: Giuseppe Tartini è un giovane violinista che come tanti, per realizzare i propri sogni, è posto davanti al dilemma se seguire la via più giusta per raggiungerli o affidarsi a percorsi più rapidi, ma oscuri. All'inizio del XVIII secolo egli si impossessa, con l'inganno, di alcuni spartiti musicali, dando così inizio ad una vita di grandi successi, ma travagliata. L'intelligenza e l'intraprendenza gli consentiranno di progredire negli studi della più varia natura, tra cui la Magia e la Teurgia, e quindi di scoprire il segreto per non morire. Molti anni dopo, la vita del conte decaduto, Andrè D'Aguilles, attento studioso di antropologia del Sud-est europeo, viene sconvolta dalle Guerre Napoleoniche. Audace ufficiale di cavalleria verrà involontariamente risucchiato nella terribile Crisi di Vampirismo che sconvolgeva l'area carpato-balcanico-danubiana. Fra Moravia, Regno d'Ungheria e Balkan selvaggio, fra indovinelli, saggi ebrei sefarditi, duelli, dolore, morte, sangue e folklore si sviluppa la caccia al misterioso Signore dei Vampiri. Tartini, Paganini e Andrè simboleggiano il Male e il Bene, e le scelte che fin da giovani si è chiamati a fare.
Book Synopsis Johann Michael Wansleben's Travels in the Levant, 1671-1674 by : Alastair Hamilton
Download or read book Johann Michael Wansleben's Travels in the Levant, 1671-1674 written by Alastair Hamilton and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Johann Michael Wansleben’s Travels in the Levant, 1671–1674 is a hitherto unpublished version of a remarkable description of Egypt and the Levant by the German scholar traveller Wansleben, or Vansleb (as he was known in France). He set out for the East in 1671 to collect manuscripts and antiquities for the French king and also produced the best study of the Copts to have appeared to date. This book recounts his travels in Syria, Turkey and Egypt, his everyday life in Cairo, and his anthropological and archeological discoveries which include the Graeco-Roman Ǧabbārī cemetery in Alexandria, the Roman city of Antinopolis on the Nile, the Coptic monastery of St Anthony on the Red Sea and the Red and White monasteries in Upper Egypt.
Book Synopsis The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage by : Samuel L MacGregor Mathers
Download or read book The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage written by Samuel L MacGregor Mathers and published by Cosimo, Inc.. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage-originally published in 1900, translated by Samuel Mathers from a 15th-century French document-was purportedly written by Abraham for his son Lamech. Within this volume are three books. The first book is Abraham's autobiography in which he speaks to his son. The second book is an explanation of the purification rituals necessary to bring the magician's personal demon under his control. And the third book details what feats can be accomplished once the practitioner is able to use a form of magic controlled and directed through sigils of magic words written on a grid. Anyone with an interest in the occult will find this an interesting, though perhaps impractical, guide for exploring mystic arts.
Book Synopsis M. T. H. O. S. by : William R. Wraithe

Book excerpt: This is the book of Shape-shifting. Being an ex-member of the Golden Dawn and climbing in the ranks of knowledge, I had learned many things that are kept hidden from the public. One among many forms of knowledge is using methods and meditations that revolve around the Morphic Fields of our own body to increase change in us and in our world. That being, I had summoned sources through invocation and evocation learned through the Golden Dawn to insure these sources as fact. As you can see, the book lies before you in pristine paperback form. The secrets that lie within can be yours if you want them. All you need is the desire to claim what is rightfully yours.
Book Synopsis A Criminal Hero by : Pasquale Palmieri
Download or read book A Criminal Hero written by Pasquale Palmieri and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-19 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1757, the Augustinian friar Leopoldo di San Pasquale was tried in Naples by the hierarchies of his own religious order on charges of financial fraud, heresy, and sexual immorality. He responded by accusing the heads of the convent of subjecting him to a series of inhuman cruelties, claiming to have been "buried alive". While waiting for a final judgment (it was pronounced seven years later, in 1764), the trial of Leopoldo di San Pasquale became a cultural phenomenon unlike any witnessed before in Naples. Cumulatively, reactions to the trial, both during and after it, broke the boundaries separating chronicle and literary fiction, engaged people’s faculties of reason and emotion, and ultimately transformed Leopoldo into a public spectacle—or what we might call today a “celebrity.” Focusing on the scandalous affair of the "buried alive", this book shows how the governing authorities in Naples managed the development of news and stories around current events through their systems of courts and bureaucracies. It also aims to demonstrate how, just as importantly, consumers played an increasing in the spread of information, as means to political empowerment. The sources analyzed call for a microhistorical analysis, as well as for an interdisciplinary discussion with media studies at its conceptual core. A Criminal Hero will appeal to students and scholars alike interested in microhistory, cultural history, media history, history of literature, social and political history, with a focus on the eighteenth century.

Book Synopsis The Science of Naples by : Lorenza Gianfrancesco
Download or read book The Science of Naples written by Lorenza Gianfrancesco and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2024-06-24 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long neglected in the history of Renaissance and early modern Europe, in recent years scholars have revised received understanding of the political and economic significance of the city of Naples and its rich artistic, musical and political culture. Its importance in the history of science, however, has remained relatively unknown. The Science of Naples provides the first dedicated study of Neapolitan scientific culture in the English language. Drawing on contributions from leading experts in the field, this volume presents a series of studies that demonstrate Neapolitans’ manifold contributions to European scientific culture in the early modern period and considers the importance of the city, its institutions and surrounding territories for the production of new knowledge. Individual chapters demonstrate the extent to which Neapolitan scholars and academies contributed to debates within the Republic of Letters that continued until deep into the nineteenth century. They also show how studies of Neapolitan natural disasters yielded unique insights that contributed to the development of fields such as medicine and earth sciences. Taken together, these studies resituate the city of Naples as an integral part of an increasingly globalised scientific culture, and present a rich and engaging portrait of the individuals who lived, worked and made scientific knowledge there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La «trama nascosta» è quella che emerge dalla ricostruzione delle vicende di alcuni personaggi qui osservati, pur nell’ambito delle specifiche competenze, nelle vesti di tramiti di trasferimenti “culturali”. In uno spazio che è quello dell’Europa meno fittamente abitata, che nei suoi confini dilatati si apre a est. A ben vedere, più o meno, l’Europa entrata con il nuovo millennio nell’Unione Europea.

Book Synopsis The Refugee-Diplomat by : Diego Pirillo
Download or read book The Refugee-Diplomat written by Diego Pirillo and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-15 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The establishment of permanent embassies in fifteenth-century Italy has traditionally been regarded as the moment of transition between medieval and modern diplomacy. In The Refugee-Diplomat, Diego Pirillo offers an alternative history of early modern diplomacy, centered not on states and their official representatives but around the figure of "the refugee-diplomat" and, more specifically, Italian religious dissidents who forged ties with English and northern European Protestants in the hope of inspiring an Italian Reformation. Pirillo reconsiders how diplomacy worked, not only within but also outside of formal state channels, through underground networks of individuals who were able to move across confessional and linguistic borders, often adapting their own identities to the changing political conditions they encountered. Through a trove of diplomatic and mercantile letters, inquisitorial records, literary texts, marginalia, and visual material, The Refugee-Diplomat recovers the agency of religious refugees in international affairs, revealing their profound impact on the emergence of early modern diplomatic culture and practice.

Book Synopsis Paroimia: Brusantino, Florio, Sarnelli, and Italian Proverbs From the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries by : Daniela D’Eugenio
Download or read book Paroimia: Brusantino, Florio, Sarnelli, and Italian Proverbs From the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries written by Daniela D’Eugenio and published by Purdue University Press. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proverbs constitute a rich archive of historical, cultural, and linguistic significance that affect genres and linguistics codes. They circulate through writers, texts, and communities in a process that ultimately results in modifications in their structure and meanings. Hence, context plays a crucial role in defining proverbs as well as in determining their interpretation. Vincenzo Brusantino’s Le cento novella (1554), John Florio’s Firste Fruites (1578) and Second Frutes (1591), and Pompeo Sarnelli’s Posilecheata (1684) offer clear representations of how traditional wisdom and communal knowledge reflect the authors’ personal perspectives on society, culture, and literature. The analysis of the three authors’ proverbs through comparisons with classical, medieval, and early modern collections of maxims and sententiae provides insights on the fluidity of such expressions, and illustrates the tight relationship between proverbs and sociocultural factors. Brusantino’s proverbs introduce ethical interpretations to the one hundred novellas of Boccaccio’s The Decameron, which he rewrites in octaves of hendecasyllables. His text appeals to Counter-Reformation society and its demand for a comprehensible and immediately applicable morality. In Florio’s two bilingual manuals, proverbs fulfill a need for language education in Elizabethan England through authentic and communicative instruction. Florio manipulates the proverbs’ vocabulary and syntax to fit the context of his dialogues, best demonstrating the value of learning Italian in a foreign country. Sarnelli’s proverbs exemplify the inherent creative and expressive potentialities of the Neapolitan dialect vis-à-vis languages with a more robust literary tradition. As moral maxims, ironic assessments, or witty insertions, these proverbs characterize the Neapolitan community in which the fables take place.

Book excerpt: Partendo da un'analisi dell'antica tradizione e della dottrina segreta dei Rosacroce, l'autore ne approfondisce lasimbologia più occulta attraverso alcuni aforismi fondamentali e l'interpretazione della loro rappresentazione grafica. Tra gli altri argomenti, esamina l'unità della materia, i piani di coscienza, la metempsicosi e i sette principi cosmici che governano l'Universo. Tali principi si rifanno alla tradizione alchemica più classica il cui insegnamento per analogia viene ripreso da Magus Incognito. "Così in alto, come in basso", durante il proprio soggiorno sulla terra, l'anima umana progredisce in una sequenza il cui moto si evolve a forma di spirale e che conduce verso la propria evoluzione e liberazione. Illustrato con i 12 simboli dei Rosacroce.
Book Synopsis Renaissance Vision from Spectacles to Telescopes by : Vincent Ilardi
Download or read book Renaissance Vision from Spectacles to Telescopes written by Vincent Ilardi and published by American Philosophical Society. This book was released on 2007 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Deals with the history of eyeglasses from their invention in Italy ca. 1286 to the appearance of the telescope three cent. later. "By the end of the 16th cent. eyeglasses were as common in western and central Europe as desktop computers are in western developed countries today." Eyeglasses served an important technological function at both the intellectual and practical level, not only easing the textual studies of scholars but also easing the work of craftsmen/small bus. During the 15th cent. two crucial developments occurred: the ability to grind convex lenses for various levels of presbyopia and the ability to grind concave lenses for the correction of myopia. As a result, eyeglasses could be made almost to prescription by the early 17th cent. Illus.
