At the Threshold of Mystery is a journey through the history and progression of the mystery tradition, from its place in ancient history up to late 19th century France. Throughout the journey, Stanislas de Guaita weaves in his Kabbalistic insight and beautiful glimpses of Rosicrucian Illuminism. The appendix contains an in-depth analysis of two pantacles from the works of Heinrich Khunrath as well as sections pertaining to Martinism, and Rosicrucian Kabbalah. Stanislas de Guaita was a French poet and celebrated Rosicrucian. In 1888 Stanislas founded the Ordre Kabbalistique de la Rose Croix in an effort to revive the French Rosicrucian tradition. He played a fundamental role in the esoteric revival of the late 1800's and this translation gives you a glimpse into how our spiritual predecessors approached the Rosicrucian tradition.

The works of Stanislas de Guaita (1861-1897) are not grimoires of witchcraft, contrary to what their titles may evoke, but, in the author's own words, Essais de sciences maudits (Essays on the Cursed Sciences), meaning that he had the ambition to take a quasi-scientific look at the subjects in question. Stanislas de Guaita become one of the leading figures of the reborn occultism of the late XIX century in France. He was a true scholar and an important precursor of modern occultism. This book, the first volume of the Serpent of Genesis: The Temple of Satan, deals with black magic and the use of astral forces. The next volume of the series, The Key to Black Magic offers an overview of witchcraft through the ages and the continents most often referred to by symbolists and occultists of the time. Guaita died before finishing the third volume, The Problem of Evil, although it was published posthumously, many years after his death. The Temple of Satan includes a Bibliographical Catalogue and an Alphabetical Index. The topics covered in its seven chapters are: 1.

Eryxias by Plato is a spurious Socratic dialogue. It is set in the Stoa of Zeus Eleutherios, and features Socrates in conversation with Critias, Eryxias, and Erasistratus (nephew of Phaeax). The dialogue concerns the topic of wealth and virtue. The position of Eryxias that it is good to be materially prosperous is challenged when Critias argues that having money is not always a good thing. Socrates then shows that money has only a conventional value.

Genette uses Proust's Remembrance of Things Past as a work to identify and name the basic constituents and techniques of narrative. Genette illustrates the examples by referring to other literary works. His systemic theory of narrative deals with the structure of fiction, including fictional devices that go unnoticed and whose implications fulfill the Western narrative tradition.

In this book, Bachelard draws upon both his scientific training and his interest in the nonrational - which ultimately drew him toward the study of poetics - to explore the deeper meanings of the new physics. In Bachelard's view, the unpredictable behaviour of subatomic particles belies the seemingly neat, ordered, and mechanistic universe that the practical and empirical scientists of the nineteenth century thought they saw.
