The Hermetic Origins Of Ancient Civilizations

By A. S. Raleigh

Book Overview

The Hermetic Origins Of Ancient Civilizations is a book written by A. S. Raleigh that explores the idea that ancient civilizations were influenced by the teachings of Hermeticism, an ancient philosophical and spiritual tradition. The book delves into the history and origins of Hermeticism, tracing its roots back to ancient Egypt and Greece, and argues that it played a significant role in the development of early civilizations such as the Sumerians, Babylonians, and Egyptians. Raleigh also examines the influence of Hermeticism on the development of ancient religions and spiritual practices, including alchemy, astrology, and magic. Throughout the book, Raleigh presents evidence and arguments to support his thesis, drawing on a range of sources including historical texts, archaeological finds, and philosophical and spiritual traditions. The Hermetic Origins Of Ancient Civilizations is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the role of Hermeticism in shaping the course of human history.THIS 60 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Shepherd of Man: An Official Commentary on the Sermon of Hermes Trismegistos, by A.
