Description: THE OCCULT REVIEW: VOLUME 26, JULY-DECEMBER 1917 Book Details + Condition: William Rider & Son (London). Volume 26, 1917. First UK Editions of the highly influential and pre-eminent journal of the 20th century, THE OCCULT REVIEW. (The US editions were issued one month after the British.) This compilation spans July - December, 1917. 378 pages, with illustrations. Edited by Ralph Shirley, THE OCCULT REVIEW contained essays on all aspects of occultism, from alchemy to witchcraft; there was emphasis on magic, as many of its authors had been members of the Golden Dawn or its offshoots. Most of the eminent occultists of the period contributed to the journal, such as Frater Achad, Arthur Avalon, Annie Besant, Theodore Besterman, J.W. Brodie-Innes; Hereward Carrington, Mabel Collins, Aleister Crowley, Dion Fortune, Ada Goodrich-Freer; Franz Hartmann, D. D. Home, E.J. Langford Garstin; Michael Juste; William Kingsland, G.R.S. Mead; Sylvan J. Muldoon, Elliot O'Donnell, H. Stanley Redgrove, Sax Rohmer; Eduoard Schure, Lewis Spence, Meredith Starr, Montague Summers, and A.E. Waite. In addition to essays, poems, artwork, and illustrations, each issue typically contained the editor's 'Notes of the Month,' letters from the public, book reviews, and advertisements. This compiled volume contains such articles as: - The Lodge of Magic (A.E. Waite)- Reincarnation: Fragments of Memory (Jocelyn Underhill)- Angels- The Gods of Luck in Ancient Rome- Yogi Breathing- An Egyptian Ritual Against Apophi and Its Relation to Modern Witchcraft- The Pagan- Symbolism in Colour, Ancient and Modern- A Case of Indirect Telepathy- The Music of Magic (Sax Rohmer)- Irish Charms and Incantations- Dead Minds- The Life of Trees- The Origin of Evil (Hereward Carrington)- How to Read the Tea-Cup (A Highland Seer)- And more. A solid copy of a very scarce edition with the original covers.
