P. D. Ouspensky

Broschiertes Buch

The Symbolism of the Tarot

Beschreibung

The Russian-born Peter D. Ouspensky (1878-1947) popularized interest in the occult in the early 20th century with his own ideas - as in Tertium Organum in 1912 - and the ideas of G. I. Gurdjieff in the posthumous 1949 book In Search of the Miraculous. Early in his career Ouspensky penned a short work on the images of the tarot, using the recently issued Waite-Smith pictorial deck as his basis. Here is that work.

Autor

Peter D. Ouspensky (1878 - 1947) was a Russian esotericist known for his expositions of the early work of the Greek-Armenian teacher of esoteric doctrine George Gurdjieff. He met Gurdjieff in Moscow in 1915 and was associated with the ideas and practices originating with Gurdjieff from then on. He taught ideas and methods based in the Gurdjieff system for 25 years in England and the United States, although he separated from Gurdjieff personally in 1924, for reasons that are explained in the last chapter of his book In Search of the Miraculous.
