Description
A landmark of twentieth-century esoteric literature, The Secret Teachings of All Ages is widely regarded as Manly P. Hall’s masterpiece and one of the most influential works ever published on Western mystical traditions. Originally issued in 1928, this encyclopedic volume explores the symbolism, philosophy, and hidden teachings of Freemasonry, Hermeticism, Rosicrucianism, Qabbalah, alchemy, sacred geometry, mythology, astrology, ancient mystery schools, and comparative religion. Hall’s synthesis of history, philosophy, and symbolism has made this work an enduring reference for collectors, scholars, and students of the esoteric arts.

Augustus Knapp artwork.
