Book – PDF Lionel Snell (a.k.a. Ramsey Dukes) - My Years of Magical Thinking

[HoldAll]

Alan Moore describes the book:
"Lionel Snell is, in my opinion, the most lucid, coherent and insightful intellect to emerge from British occultism for some several decades, and in My Years of Magical Thinking he presents his most considered and powerfully reasoned work to date. With an amiable and amusing clarity, aimed at the mainstream rather than at an audience already persuaded to esoteric notions, Snell presents his fascinating models of human cultural development and provides his own convincing answer to that disenchanted modern query, “whatever happened to the Enlightenment?” Crackling with fresh ideas and perspectives, heavy with the sense that a reconsideration of occult concepts might offer solutions to some contemporary dilemmas, My Years of Magical Thinking is a sane and sensible meditation upon a subject that is often dismissed as anything but, as well as a pinnacle of current magical theory. Highly recommended."

I discovered Ramsey Dukes through his essay “Spare Parts”, on Austin Osman Spare. In those few pages, he revealed himself (at least to me) as a powerful guide or torchbearer. It was clear that his knowledge and insights far surpassed the actual essay, which is a feeling I love to have as a reader. It creates trust. I had the same feeling while reading Dion Fortune’s Mystical Qabalah. Crisp, clever, cool & calm. Very much looking forward to this book and grateful for the existence of this forum
