A Definitive Edition of the Symbolist Classic by the author of
The Secret Teachings of All Ages
Manly P. Hall is widely recognized as the preeminent voice of occult
scholarship in the twentieth century, famous for his esoteric
masterpiece The Secret Teachings of All Ages (1928). Now, in this
"deluxe edition," Hall's earliest work, The Initiates of the Flame, is
reborn with a full complement of illustrations and historical
introductions.
Originally published in 1922, The Initiates of the Flame is Hall's
first exploration--and still one of his most powerful--of myth and
symbol. Its pages shine on a light on the inner meaning of symbols
including the pyramid, holy grail, flame of wisdom, ark of the covenant,
all-seeing eye, sword and stone, the elements of alchemy, and other
gateways to the unseen world.
Edited and reintroduced by popular voice of esoteric spirituality, Mitch
Horowitz, and president of the Philosophical Research Society, Greg
Salyer, Ph.D., this is the signature presentation of Hall's landmark.
