Descriere magazin:
nIn 1893, Dr. G rard Encausse, also known by his nomen mysticum, Papus, wrote a book entitled Trait l mentaire de Magie Pratique: Adaptation, R alisation, Th orie de la Magie, or Elementary Treatise of Practical Magic: Adaptation, Practice, Theory of Magic. This was the moment the general public came to meet \'Papus\' for the first time.Perhaps the most important word in the long title is Adaptation, for Papus makes the very important point that it isn\'t necessary to follow the instructions of the Grimoires slavishly, with no understanding or engagement of the intellect. He argued that modern man had neither the time to undertake the extensive and exclusive practices of old, and that many of the materials and implements required could either be purchased ready-made, or replaced with more modern substitutes.

Yet for the high road he tries to take, Papus is not above adding phrases like \'Country\' or \'Folk Magic\' and \'Love Potions\' to his subtitle That said, the book is important in the history of esoteric education for a number of reasons. It was one of the first books which brought knowledge of the Grimoires and Ceremonial Magic to the general public, rather than to a rarified group of disciples. He was also the first to try to marry esoteric studies to science, in order to make them more palatable; and indeed, his work in this field does not appear to have negatively affected his professional life.Perhaps most importantly, it provides a fascinating insight in fin de si cle Paris, with its aspirations, energy, fears, and pride.
