"Just how Sir Thomas Browne’s discourse The Garden of Cyrus (1658) has not been recognised as exemplary of literary writings influenced by hermetic philosophy remains a mystery. The  first page of Browne's discourse alludes to no less than six major themes, symbols and preoccupations which are associated with western esoteric traditions including hermeticism."

"Where did Dee live? People speculate about a house, in an ancient street, preserved under the Corn Exchange. It seems more likely that Dee lived in what is now Chetham’s School."

"On two of the last leaves of receipt book compiled by Margarett Baker in the late-seventeenth century, there is a brief treatise that defines the practice of alchemy (fols. 133v-134r)..."

"Fludd believed in the Hermetic view of the macrocosm and the microcosm, and used Pythagorean principles of mathematics and musical harmony to explain how the cosmos was created. He also saw creation as an alchemical process and illustrated it with a series of fantastic drawings that look like mandalas or cymatics images."

A Hall of Mirrors: Cabala, Spiegel Der Kunst Und Natur, In Alchymia (1615)

"Featuring four alchemical engravings by Raphael Custos — much reproduced since Carl Jung included the third as “The Mountain of the Adepts” in Psychology and Alchemy (1968) — Cabala’s leading symbol is the looking glass, which the author offers as a tool for penetrating the mysteries of alchemy and divinity. The century spanning from 1550 to 1650 saw the publication of hundreds of books with “Speculum”, “Spiegel”, and “Mirror” in their titles, a testament to the technology’s immense power over the European imagination."

Bridging Traditions
Alchemy, Chemistry, and Paracelsian Practices in the Early Modern Era

Edited by Karen Hunger Parshall, Michael T. Walton, and Bruce T. Moran

“This collection of essays is a fitting tribute to Allen Debus’s radically contrarian and visionary work. On topics ranging from Paracelsian medicine in Spain to the enigma of John Dee, the essays demonstrate that Debus’s legacy continues, though shaped and reshaped by new perspectives."

"Ian Gladwin is one of a small group who have worked together to create and build Pansophers.com which is probably the foremost online resource of knowledge and information about the Rosicrucian Tradition and their modern successors.

Ian will be sharing with us current research that he has been undertaking in a presentation that he is has entitled ‘The Gold and Rosenkreuzer Order’.  Much of what he will be talking about is not widely known and will almost certainly be new to you."
