Deep in the mysterious night where all is but distorted dreaming, far beyond the logical grasp of man, yet buried deep in our hearts, there lives an ancient myth instructing us in the mystical art of alchemy and magic. "Hermetica" is an epic journey of poetic and verse drama that strives to find links between differing aspects of Egyptian mythology. As folklore was once such an embedded tradition, there was no need to record anything on papyri, even after the advent of hieroglyphic and cuneiform writing systems. As a result, an entire body of oral literature has been lost. What remains is but a small part of a potentially massive collection of unrecorded myth. Using the ancient tools of alchemy and magic, this volume seeks to sculpt the events leading to the death, dismemberment, and resurrection of Osiris. Also included is the sequel to the popular Middle Kingdom tale, "The Story of the Shipwrecked Sailor," and a dramatic interpretation of the Ptolemaic Lamentations of Isis and Nephthys. The accompanying poetry is a tribute to love, a pure byproduct of the alchemical process. Delve into the realms of unexplored myth, legend, and love as viewed through the hermetical musings of modern-day alchemist and poet, Paul Kiritsis.

作者简介 · · · · · ·
本书作者被尊为“三倍伟大者赫耳墨斯”,据说,他是公元前希腊化时期亚历山大里亚城的一个隐姓埋名的炼金术高士,公开身份则是埃及祭司。可以推断,“三倍伟大者赫耳墨斯”不过是古代晚期赫耳墨斯教高士塑造的一个精神符号。
