Aunque los dioses y diosas griegos eran seres inmortales y poderosos, estos eran muy similares a los humanos que los adoraban. Los dioses y diosas sufren ataques de celos, se enamoran, se enfadan cuando se sienten engañados, y otorgan bendiciones cuando son honrados. De igual modo, los héroes son de proporciones épicas: su fuerza, velocidad y habilidad los separan de otros mortales; pero, como todos los humanos, sufren de dolores, enfermedades y muerte.

This guide offers a modern interpretation of Hermetic doctrine, distilling its teachings into seven compelling principles that can be applied to self-development in daily life. For centuries, the legendary Egyptian man-god Hermes Trismegistus – regarded as the father of astrology, alchemy, and other magical arts – inspired writers and readers of occult literature. In 1908, the anonymous authors known as “Three Initiates” prepared this concise and engaging edition of the master’s teachings.

La scienza moderna non nasce con Galileo e Newton. Le sue origini vanno retrodatate di almeno 2000 anni, alla fine del IV sec. a.C. La Rivoluzione scientifica del XVIII sec. riscopre la Rivoluzione ellenistica di figure come Euclide, Archimede, Erarstotene, Aristarco di Samo e di tanti altri raffinati scienziati.

Anselm of Canterbury (1033-1109) was the outstanding philosopher-theologian of the Latin West between Augustine and the thirteenth century. As a public figure, especially as Archbishop of Canterbury, he corresponded with kings and nobles, popes and bishops, in letters that reveal a fascinating personality and flesh out the practical dimensions of his theoretical philosophy. He wrote at a time when a renewed interest in logic encouraged careful and rigorous argumentation, but before the recovery of Aristotle filled the philosophical discourse.
