PrésentationThe Original 1908 Edition— Complete and Unabridged The Kybalion (full title: The Kybalion: A Study of the Hermetic Philosophy of Ancient Egypt and Greece) was first published in 1908 under the pseudonym“The Three Initiates,” a name commonly associated with New Thought author William Walker Atkinson (1862–1932), several of whose works are available from Alchemist Editions. The book presents itself as a concise exposition of the teachings attributed to Hermes Trismegistus. Although it echoes themes found in classical and medieval Hermetic writings— such as philosophical mentalism, the maxim“as above, so below,” and the principle of polarity— the work reflects above all the intellectual climate of early twentieth-century occultism. In particular, it bears the imprint of the New Thought movement, to which Atkinson belonged. As a modern Hermetic treatise, The Kybalion exerted a significant influence on twentieth-century esoteric and New Age spirituality. Afficher moinsAfficher plus
