In Book 1 , occultist Francis Barrett assembles a sweeping synthesis of mystical traditions—drawing from Agrippa, Paracelsus, and ancient Hermeticism—to present a comprehensive foundation of ceremonial magic.

This audiobook will change your view of symbols, their meaning, and how they affect our world. Kuhn is an exquisite genius in showing how our alphabet was formed and how language dictates reality.

First published in 1895, The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind remains one of the most influential works on mass psychology and the behavior of crowds.

Gerard Massey’s massive Ancient Egypt: The Light of the World–first published in 1907 and the crowning achievement of the self-taught scholar–redefines the roots of Christianity via Egypt, proposing that Egyptian mythology was the basis for Jewish and Christian beliefs.

Here, Cosimo proudly presents Book 7 of Ancient Egypt, in which Massey explains how Egyptian wisdom–which greatly concerns itself with matters of the womb and birth, water, and the offspring of gods–was appropriated by the Hebrew holy books, and explains how the Hebrew account of creation is a clear repetition of Egyptian mythology.

The statesman must make provision for this teaching or he will presently find himself faced with the impossible task of maintaining civilization with savages instead of citizens

ONE of the dam-dest in our whole saturnalia of the accursed. Because it is hopeless to try to shake off an excommunication only by saying that we’re damned by blacker things than ourselves; and that the damned are those who admit they’re of the damned. Inertia and hypnosis are too strong for us. We say that: then we go right on admitting we’re of the damned.

In Civilization and Its Discontents, Sigmund Freud delivers one of the most provocative examinations of modern life ever written.

So begins The Call of Cthulhu, a dark and unsettling tale of pieced-together horror.

It is offered to such as are willing to accept truth wherever it may be found, and to defend it, even looking popular prejudice straight in the face.

Soon, she was earning a small weekly wage by writing a column for the National Reformer, the newspaper of the National Secular Society. She was also one of the leading figures in Theosophy.
