About this product

Product Information

The present edition is Volume 2 of G.R.S. Mead's collection and survey of the all available texts and fragments of the literature attributed to Hermes Trismegistus. Volume I: ISBN 1546596046; Volume II: ISBN 1546596054; Volume III: ISBN 1546596062; 3 Volumes in 1: ISBN 1546532692. This is a collection which forms the foundation of Hermeticism and illuminates much of the origin of western philosophical, religious and spiritual thought, from Egypt to Greece and on to the Gstics and the sources of Christian doctrine. -- From the Preface: These volumes, complete in themselves as a series of studies in a definite body of tradition, are intended to serve ultimately as a small contribution to the preparation of the way leading towards a solution of the vast problems involved in the scientific study of the Origins of the Christian Faith. They might thus perhaps be described as the preparation of materials to serve for the historic, mythic, and mystic consideration of the Origins of Christianity, -where the term mythic is used in its true sense of inner, typical, sacred and logic, as opposed to the external processioning of physical events kwn as historic, and where the term mystic is used as that which pertains to initiation and the mysteries. The serious consideration of the matter contained in these pages will, I hope, enable the attentive reader to outline in his mind, however vaguely, some small portion of the environment of infant Christianity, and allow him to move a few steps round the cradle of Christendom. Though the material that we have collected, has, as to its externals, been tested, as far as our hands are capable of the work, by the methods of scholarship and criticism, it has nevertheless at the same time been allowed ungrudgingly to show itself the outward expression of a truly vital endeavour of immense interest and value to all who are disposed to make friends with it. For along this ray of the Trismegistic tradition we may allow ourselves to be drawn backwards in time towards the holy of holies of the Wisdom of Ancient Egypt. The sympathetic study of this material may well prove an initiatory process towards an understanding of that Archaic Gsis. -G.R.S. Mea

Author Biography
George Robert Stowe Mead (1863-1933) was an English historian, writer, editor, translator, and an influential member of the Theosophical Society. He worked closely with H. P. Blavatsky, founder of the theosophical society, as her private secretary, aided in the publication of her magnum opus The Secret Doctrine. In 1909 he helped lead a major exodus from the Theosophical Society in protest of Ms. Besant and C.W. Leadbeater, and formed the Quest Society. He was a prolific writer, publishing countless articles in theosophical magazines along with several ground-breaking books, including the Pistis Sophia, Thrice-Greatest Hermes, Orpheus, and Fragments of a Faith Forgotten, among others. His works remain influential in the fields of Hermeticism, Gnosticism and Early Christianity.

Always happy with the Nile's service. Whilst dispatch can take longer than others, books are sourced at a great price from locations worldwide and from prior experience I know to order in advance. I ordered three expensive textbooks for uni, two weeks later they were dispatched and the next day received - all earlier than expected timeframe. Packaged very well, books intact. Great seller, updated tracking and items as described. A+++
