Krátky popis
This book tells the story of the mystical Jewish system known as
Kabbalah, from its earliest origins until the present day. We trace
Kabbalah's development, from the second century visionaries who
visited the divine realms and brought back tales of their glories
and splendours, through the unexpected arrival of a book in Spain
that appeared to have lain unconcealed for over a thousand years,
and on to the mystical city of Safed where souls could be read and
the history of heaven was an open book. Kabbalah's Christian
counterpart, Cabala, emerged during the Renaissance, becoming
allied to magic, alchemy and the occult sciences.A Kabbalistic
heresy tore apart seventeenth century Jewish communities, while
closer to our time Aleister Crowley hijacked it to proclaim `Do
What Thou Wilt'. Kabbalah became fashionable in the late 1960s in
the wake of the hippy counter-culture and with the approach of the
new age, and enjoyed its share of fame, scandal and disrepute as
the twenty first century approached. This concise, readable and
thoughtful history of Kabbalah tells its story as it has never been
told before.It demands no knowledge of Kabbalah, just an interest
in asking the questions `why?' and `how?'
