Description
Kenneth Sylvan Guthrie’s Pagan Bible (at the start revealed in 1925) is a selection of ancient writings about angels, daimons, genii, guardian spirits, and identical divine beings, primarily from the Pagan authors of ancient Greece and Rome. Picks come with Plutarch, Apuleius, and Maximus of Tyre on Socrates’ guardian spirit, Plotinus on soul-guardians, Proclus and Synesius on providential angels, Dionysius the Areopagite at the angelic hierarchy, Plato at the vision of Er, Cicero at the dream of Scipio, Plutarch at the vision of Sylla, Virgil at the vision of Aeneas, Zosimus on divine alchemy, Prodicus at the number of Hercules, Cebes’ Pill, and more. This Pythagorean Pentagram Press edition has been newly typeset and reformatted, but presents the text and general appearance of the unique edition.
