Something legal this time  The Jewish National and University Library has digitized a large number of books, including Peculium Abrae by Abraham ben Meir de Balmes, which contains the Transitus Fluvii alphabet which also appears in Panteo's Voarchadumia. Requires the DjVu plug-in (available from the website as a free download). Does not work in Chrome but functions OK in Firefox. http://aleph500.huji.ac.il/nnl/dig/books_hla.html Also available is the Hebrew Grammar by Gesenius, and a large collection of works on the Cabala: http://aleph500.huji.ac.il/nnl/dig/books_kab.html Most of these are in Hebrew, but there are also works by Pico and Khunrath. Also Steinschneider's "Die hebräischen Übersetzungen des Mittelalters": http://aleph500.huji.ac.il/nnl/dig/books_msc.html ...and alchemical works by Michael Maier and Artephius: http://aleph500.huji.ac.il/nnl/dig/books_sci.html Last edited on Tue Dec 29th, 2009 08:58 am by Paul Ferguson |

. In this work, Splendor lucis (Vienne, 1745), from the pen of ‘Aloys Weiner ’ (actually, Perlin Lippman), later knighted von Sonnenfels, and given to Jung by Gershom Scholem ... http://www.e-rara.ch/cgj/alch/content/pageview/2574822 ... the author draw a list of the patriarchs, beginning with Hermes (?!), Abraham, Isaac, etc. At the section ‘Solomonis, Canticum Canticorum de Tinctura Physica’, on page [138]126, is this strange ‘TABULA SPHIROTICA’, an interesting attempted at correspondence: http://www.e-rara.ch/cgj/content/pageview/2574960 But since the work is a rather late one, I was wondering if Lippman really came up with these analogies himself, or if he was ‘inspired’ by a previous author. Anyone that saw it printed before? . |
