Description
A classic since 1928, this masterly encyclopaedia of ancient mythology, ritual, symbolism and the arcane mysteries of the ages is available for the first time in a compact, fully reset "Readers Edition." Like no other book of the twentieth century, Manly P. Hall's legendary The Secret Teachings Of All Ages is a codex to the ancient occult and esoteric traditions of the world. Its hundreds of entries shine a rare light on some of the most fascinating and closely held aspects of myth, religion and philosophy that resound from antiquity to the present day. For the first time, the complete text of Hall's celebrated classic has been reset and redesigned for ease and accessibility of reading experience. More than one hundred line drawings and a sixteen-page colour insert reproduce some of the finest illustrations of the original work and this new edition features Hall's original index and bibliography. Students of hidden wisdom, ancient symbols and arcane practices treasure Hall's magnum opus above all other works. In this affordably priced and newly formatted volume, The Secret Teachings Of All Ages is now available to readers everywhere.
