Скачать или смотреть The Fathers of Renaissance Esoteric Magic with Ronnie Pontiac

Ronnie Pontiac was the personal research assistant for Manly P. Hall at the Philosophical Research Society in Los Angeles. He is author of American Metaphysical Religion: Esoteric and Mystical Traditions of the New World. He is coauthor with Tamra Lucid of The Magic of the Orphic Hymns: A New Translation for the Modern Mystic.

This interview focuses primarily on three significant contributors to Renaissance esoteric culture: Marsilio Ficino, Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, and Paracelsus. Their life spans covered a period of 100 years during which European culture experienced a great awakening, triggered initially by Ficino's translations of lost texts from ancient Greece. Other important figures are also discussed including Pico Della Mirandola, John Dee, Trithemius – as well as the backlash against the Renaissance, triggered by the Dominican Friar Savonarola.
