Donald Tyson Knihy

Pojednání o okultní filozofii, zabývající se vibrací jmen a vyvolávání andělských sil.

Henochiánská magie patří k nejvíce fascinujícím a zároveň nejkontroverznějším magickým systémům západního světa. Její tajemství přinesli lidstvu na konci 16. století dva slavní mágové John Dee a Edward Kelly, kteří ji přejali od andělských bytostí. Henochiánská magie se pak stala jedním z úhelných kamenů návratu starobylých magických praktik do naší současnosti. Až do této chvíle byla autentická henochiánská magie známa spíše útržkovitě, Donald Tyson však nyní nabízí čtenáři celý systém v dosud nebývale jednotném podání. Kniha obsahuje jak velmi čtivé a komplexní zpracování historie i současnosti henochiany, tak i vyčerpávající přehled její magické teorie a praxe. Dílo zahrnuje i zdroje, které dříve rozhodně nebylo snadné získat, a nadto je obohaceno o výsledky autorova vlastního bádání. Kniha je tedy nejúplnějším a nejmodernějším zdrojem o tomto tradičním magickém systému, jaký lze v češtině nyní získat.

H. P. Lovecraft's compelling character, Abdul Alhazred, is brought to life in this epic tale detailing the mad sorcerer's tragic history and magical adventures. Alhazred tells his own life story, beginning with himself as a poor, handsome boy in Yemen who attracts the attention of the king for his divine skill in poetry. As the court poet, young Abdul lives a luxurious life at the palace, where he studies necromancy and magic. But falling in love with the king's daughter leads to a foolish tryst, which is ultimately discovered. As punishment, Abdul is tortured, brutally mutilated, and cast into the desert, known as the Empty Space. Battling insanity, he joins a tribe of ghouls and learns forbidden secrets from a stranger called Nyarlathotep. Thus begins his downward spiral into wickedness. Renamed Alhazred, he escapes the desert and embarks on a quest to restore his body and reunite with his true love. Traveling across the ancient world and fantastic realms, he is hounded by foes and tormented by the demands of his dark lord.

The Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy, by Henry Cornelius Agrippa and unnamed others, is considered one of the cornerstones of Western magic, and the grimoires it contains are among the most important that exist in the Western tradition. For more than three hundred years, this mysterious tome has been regarded as difficult or even impossible to understand--until now. Occult scholar Donald Tyson presents a fully annotated, corrected, and modernized edition of Stephen Skinner's 1978 facsimile edition of the original work, which was six tracts published as one volume in 1655. For the first time, these classic works of Western magic have been rendered fully accessible to the novice practitioner, as well as occult scholars and skilled magicians. Tyson presents clear instruction and practical insight on a variety of magic techniques, providing contemporary magicians with a working grimoire of the arcane.

WIKIPEDIA says: 'H.P. Lovecraft's reputation has grown tremendously over the decades, and he is now commonly regarded as one of the most important horror writers of the 20th century, exerting an influence that is widespread, though often indirect.' H.P. Lovecraft's tales of the tentacled Elder God Cthulhu and his pantheon of alien deities were initially written for the pulp magazines of the 1920s and '30s. These astonishing tales blend elements of horror, science fiction and cosmic terror that are as powerful today as they were when they were first published. This handsome leatherbound tome collects together the very best of Lovecraft's tales of terror, including the complete Cthulhu Mythos cycle, just the way they were originally published. It will introduce a whole new generation of readers to Lovecraft's fiction, as well as being a must-buy for those fans who want all his work in a single, definitive, highly attractive volume.

The vast store of magical lore in this classic work has influenced occultists for five centuries. Originally published in 1531 and translated into English in 1651, it has not been reprinted in its entirety until now. Editor Donald Tyson presents these writings as Agrippa intended: complete and free from the numerous errors of the original translation. This work serves as the most comprehensive repository of pagan and Neo-Platonic magic ever compiled, featuring unique material, including extracts from obscure or lost works by notable figures such as Pythagoras, Pliny the Elder, Cicero, Ptolemy, Plato, and Aristotle. Tyson’s detailed annotations clarify difficult references and expand upon quotations, making Agrippa's work more accessible to modern readers. It offers extensive insights into the foundations of the Western Esoteric tradition and serves as a practical guide for magical workings, detailing various divinations and both natural and ceremonial magic in clear, useful terms. This work is an essential reference for students of the history of ideas and the occult tradition.

Focusing on the use of body postures and hand gestures, the book explores their significance in magic, enriched with associations to planetary influences, qabalistic principles, and elemental forces.
