The History of Magic

Arthur Edward Waite

3.5/5 ( ratings)

One of the most beautiful and profoundly romantic histories ever written on the subject, this book is the starting point for anyone interested in the history and practice of magic. It includes chapters on: Magic of the Magi, Magic in Ancient Greece, the Kabalah, Primitive Symbolism, Mysticism, Oracles, Magic and Christianity, Pagan Magic, Magic and Freemasonry, the Illuminati, and much more.

This volume has impressive literary antecedents. To Arthur Rimbaud, for instance, this book was a major influence. Amongst his own friends, Levi could count such luminaries as Balzac, de Nirvana, Victor Hugo, and Dumas. The History of Magic is a massively important work whose influence extends far beyond its own field of study.
