Mary Carruthers’s classic study of the training and uses of memory for a variety of purposes in European cultures during the Middle Ages has fundamentally changed the way scholars understand medieval culture. This fully revised and updated second edition considers afresh all the material and conclusions of the first. While responding to new directions in research inspired by the original, this new edition devotes much more attention to the role of trained memory in composition, whether of literature, music, architecture, or manuscript books. The new edition will reignite the debate on memory in medieval studies and, like the first, will be essential reading for scholars of history, music, the arts and literature, as well as those interested in issues of orality and literacy (anthropology), in the working and design of memory (both neuropsychology and artificial memory), and in the disciplines of meditation (religion).

Englantilainen filosofi ja kirjailija Colin Wilson (1931–2013) on eittämättä yksi 1900-luvun lopun tuotteliaimmista paranormaalien ilmiöiden ja esoterian tutkijoista, joka jätti jälkeensä hyllymetreittäin aihetta ruotivia julkaisuja. Osaksi brittikirjallisuuden nk "angry young men" -ryhmää kuulunut Wilson kiinnostui 1960-luvun Vesimiehen ajan pyörteissä kasvavin määrin mm. mystiikasta, länsimaisesta esoteriasta, magian historiasta, kabbalasta ja teosofiasta. Hänen alunperin vuonna 1971 ilmestynyt teos "The Occult: A History" (suom. Ovi tuntemattomaan) on seikkaperäinen okkultismin historiikki, jossa Wilson ruotii aikamme merkittävimpien esoteerikkojen elämää ja teorioita (käsiteltävänä mm. Aleister Crowley, H. P. Blavatsky, Franz Mesmer, Paracelsus, P. D. Ouspensky ja Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa). Tässä tarjolla teoksen mainio Soundi-kirjojen suomennos vuodelta 1983.

Kun tätä kirjaa lukee yhä uudelleen, saa huomata itsessään henkisiä havaintoja, joita ei ole ollut aikaisemmin ja jotka kehittävät uusia tunteita ja asenteita. Tämän kirjan tarkoitus on edistää henkisten käsitteiden pohdintaa. Siinä määrin kuin pystymme sisäistämään nämä käsitteet, alamme vähitellen nähdä sisäisellä visiollamme ympäröivän henkisen rakenteen paljastumisen – aivan kuin sumun, joka hälvenee. Kabbalisti Rav Michael Laitman on tohtori filosofiassa ja kabbalassa, ontologian professori sekä luonnontieteiden kandidaatti bio-kybernetii- kassa. Hän on Bnei Baruchin kabbala- ja tutkimusinstituutin perustaja ja presidentti. Bnei Baruch on voittoa tavoittelematon järjestö jonka tarkoituksena on opettaa ja levittää kabbalan viisautta. Kahdentoista vuoden ajan Laitman oli kabbalisti Baruch Ashlagin harras oppilas. Baruch Ashlag oli Jehuda Ashlagin (Baal HaSulamin) esikoinen ja seuraaja. Baal HaSulam taas on suurin kabbalisti vuosisadallamme ja tunnetaan parhaiten kattavan ja arvovaltaisen selitysteoksen kirjoittajana pyhälle Zoharille. Kun tri. Laitman oli omaksunut Rav Ashlagin menetelmän, hän omistautui sen levittämiselleMuu(t) tekijä(t): Kaija HolstikkoAsiasanat: kabbala

DescriptionHoly Heretics is the third and final volume in the Holy Daimon cycle. Blending occult philosophy, magic and mysticism, Frater Acher guides the reader through the centuries with a series of practical exercises and rites which ultimately restore the powerful Olympic spirits to their original magical context.Frater Acher identifies certain techniques of mysticism as a prerequisite for the work of magic, as the often missing element in the development of a serious practice. The advanced magical rites Holy Heretics contains are built from the foundations of simple practical exercises. These are provided and carefully explained. When performed, these rites form a luminous chain for the student who wishes to attain to adepthood and the mastery of empty-handed magic.Holy Heretics offers a challenge to magicians who have reactively rejected Christianity, and a challenge to Christians who are unaware of the heretical tensions that run throughout Christian mysticism. As Acher writes, ‘I am very aware that searching for such a path among the very people who for centuries tried to usurp and control or deform and kill the Western magical tradition is a big ask. On such an expedition to find the narrow path we’ll soon be crawling through the bones, blood and ashes of our ancestors. And yet, at the same time we’ll also encounter beauty and genuine practice, true grace and deep spiritual power.’ The mystic and magician is always a threat to spiritual orthodoxy, and Acher navigates us through that difficult space. As a guide, he approaches the Christian material fairly, is generous when appropriate, and unapologetic when describing its worst excesses. The work draws extensively from manuscript sources and texts that are not available in English, illuminating a hitherto neglected world. All is done with the aim of extracting the spiritual gold of our own heart prayer, rather than imbibing the poison of orthodoxy.In Book I of Holy Heretics we are taken on a mystical tour de force, beginning with the Desert Fathers and the austerities forged in the wilderness. From Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite we discover mystical prayer as a method to bypass the cognitive mind, and then enter into the inner stillness of Hesychasm. We stand with Symeon the New Theologian at the edge of the Abyss, and witness the remarkable visions of Hildegard of Bingen. We watch the potential of the mustard seed unfold, and encounter the radical this-worldliness of the Theologia Germanica, a manifesto for the gnostic practitioner that threatens the supremacy of the Catholic Church itself by directing the individual to seek their own illumination.In Book II, Frater Acher turns his attention to magic, as an art of symphonic harmonious co-creation. The nature of the magical call is described, and the use of the magical bell introduced with historical examples. Next Acher considers Paracelsus, giving a full English translation of his little known Arcanum arcanorum, a celestial rite to summon both one’s holy daimon and the seven Olympic spirits with such a bell. The rite is expertly deciphered, from its use of alchemical tincture to its astrological timing, by following clues across the Paracelsian and Pseudo-Paracelsian corpus. The work culminates with Frater Acher’s restored version of the Ritual of the Olympic Spirit, opening the gates of the seven spirits and uniting them into one greater Olympic Spirit. The final act thus draws on all the lessons that Holy Heretics has laid out and the flame burning in our hearts.ContentsIntroductionBook I · MYSTICISMI  On Pseudo-Dionysius Areopagite and the Mystical Path of UnknowingII  A Most Daring Operation: The Heart PrayerIII  Being in Both Worlds at OnceIntermezzo – The Granum SinapisIV  Theologia GermanicaBook II · MAGICV  The Call VI  The Olympic SpiritVII  The Rite of the Olympic SpiritBibliographyStandard hardback editionLimited to 1000 copies Bound in fine golden yellow cloth stamped with the heart flame device in gold and black, grey endpapers, and black ribbon.
