The Garden of Cyrus: Sir Thomas Browne - Paul Ferguson - 10-07-2023 "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." https://aquariumofvulcan.blogspot.com/2013/05/what-is-more-beautiful-than-quincunx.html Browne's text can be found here: https://archive.org/details/gardenofcyrusorq04brow |
