Publisher's Synopsis
""Eliphas Levi and the Sect of Eugene Vintras"" is a book written by Arthur Edward Waite that explores the life and teachings of the French occultist Eliphas Levi and the controversial religious sect of Eugene Vintras. The book delves into Levi's mystical and magical beliefs, including his theories on the Kabbalah, Tarot, and the occult sciences. It also examines the history and beliefs of the Vintrasian sect, which was accused of heresy and blasphemy by the Catholic Church in the mid-19th century. Waite provides a detailed analysis of the connections between Levi and Vintras, as well as their impact on the occult and esoteric movements of the time. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of occultism and the development of mystical beliefs in the 19th century.THIS 20 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Mysteries of Magic: A Digest of the Writings of Eliphas Levi, by Arthur Edward Waite.
