The Essential T. C. Lethbridge
T C Lethbridge
Author: Terry Welbourn
Publisher: John Hunt Publishing
ISBN: 1846948967
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 360
Book Description
This is the first formal biography of the archaeologist and psychic investigator T. C. Lethbridge. Lethbridge was Keeper of Anglo-Saxon Antiquities at the Cambridge Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology from 1922-1956. Terry Welbourn?s biography ?T.C. Lethbridge - The Man Who Saw the Future?, with a foreword written by Colin Wilson, reveals many intriguing facets of a remarkable man. What is extraordinary about Lethbridge?s life is how he witnessed and recorded the 20th century with extraordinary detail: from the discovery of new lands during his Arctic adventures, through to his pragmatic investigations into occult phenomena. Lethbridge believed that the supernatural of one generation would eventually become the natural of the next and that all occult phenomena would in time be explained by science. His understanding of dimensions operating on different vibrational rates is akin to String Theory, an ongoing branch of science instigated by theoretical physicist Gabriele Veneziano. Lethbridge did not

Around the Outsider
Author: Colin Stanley
Publisher: John Hunt Publishing
ISBN: 1846946689
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 345
Book Description
In May 1956, aged just 24, Colin Wilson achieved success and overnight fame with his philosophical study of alienation and transcendence in modern literature and thought, The Outsider. Fifty-four years on, and never out of print in English, the book is still widely read and discussed, having been translated into over thirty languages. In a remarkably prolific career, Wilson, a true polymath, has since written over 170 titles: novels, plays and non-fiction on a variety of subjects. This volume brings together twenty essays by scholars of Colin Wilson's work worldwide and is published in his honour to mark the author's 80th birthday. Each contributor has provided an essay on their favourite Wilson book (or the one they consider to be the most significant). The result is a varied and stimulating assessment of Wilson's writings on philosophy, psychology, literature, criminology and the occult with critical appraisals of four of his most thought-provoking novels. Altogether a fitting tribute to a writer

The Triumph of the Moon
Author: Ronald Hutton
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0192562282
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
'a brilliant history' The Sunday Times 'makes for riveting reading' The Independent Modern pagan witchcraft is arguably the only fully-formed religion England has given the world, and has now spread across four continents. This second edition of The Triumph of the Moon extensively revises the first full-scale scholarly study of modern pagan witchcraft. Ronald Hutton examines the nature and development of this religion, and offers a history of attitudes to witchcraft, paganism and magic in British society since 1800. Its pages reveal village cunning folk, Victorian ritual magicians, classicists and archaeologists, leaders of woodcraft and scouting movements, Freemasons, and members of rural secret societies. We also find some of the leading figures of English literature, from the Romantic poets to W. B. Yeats, D. H. Lawrence and Robert Graves, as well as the main personalities who have represented pagan witchcraft to the public world since 1950. Thriller writers like Dennis Wheatley, and films and television programmes, get similar coverage, as does tabloid journalism. The material is by its nature often sensational, and care is taken throughout to distinguish fact from fantasy, in a manner not previously applied to most of the stories involved. Meticulously researched, The Triumph of the Moon presents an authoritative insight into an aspect of modern cultural history which has attracted sensational publicity but has hitherto been little understood. This edition incorporates new research carried out by the author as well as research by others who have been inspired by this book over the twenty years since its first publication.

The Earth Mysteries Workbook
Author: John Michael Greer
Publisher: Aeon Books
ISBN: 1801521301
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 282
Book Description
A practical and investigative workbook to explore the timeless enigmas of the land on which we walk The Earth Mysteries Workbook invites readers to embark on a journey to understand and restore the ancient enchantments of the land, as well as continuing to train the minds and spirits of those engaged in magical study. The book follows forty-eight lessons which span the course of one year. It is not intended to be read cover to cover; instead readers should take a lesson a week, each of which provides material for thought, study and meditation. Each week is divided into seven numbered paragraphs to be used as themes for the week’s daily meditation. The lessons include an introduction to the earth mysteries and natural philosophy, exploration of different sites across the earth, myths and legends, phenomena and much more. This fourth instalment of John Michael Greer's instructional workbook for members of the Golden Section Fellowship, presents the scholarship of earth mysteries as a fundamental discipline of occult studies and as a spiritual discipline. Greer situates the mysteries of the land as intrinsically linked to occult studies, as they challenge the modern paradigm which ignores and belittles the sacred knowledges of ancient times, sharing a belief in the importance of the past in understanding the subtle and spiritual dimensions of the earth. This book can be read as an accompaniment to Greer’s previous titles, The Way of the Golden Section, The Occult Philosophy Workbook and The Way of the Four Elements.
