The Infinite Fire Webinar Series - Selection of Dr. P.J. Forshaw
https://youtu.be/i8KtN1_exr8
Peter will take us first to the 'Amphitheatrum Sapientiae Aeternae' - the Amphitheatre of Eternal Wisdom - the renowned work of physician and Hermetic alchemist Heinrich Khunrath
Peter will discuss the alchemical emblem book 'Atalanta Fugiens' (1617) by the Renaissance alchemist Michael Maier
So what's good occult literature, anon?
I tried reading King James' Daemonologie but got bored half-way in.

The Emblemata of the Atalanta Fugiens by Dr. Peter J. Forshaw
https://youtu.be/yi3wlIOEsn0
With the Infinite Fire Webinar Series, the Ritman Library and the Center for the History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents (GHF) of the University of Amsterdam have joined forces and are planting the seed for a Scholarly Hermetic Circle
Peter J. Forshaw, who shares with us his knowledge on Michael Maier (1568--1622), a Renaissance alchemist, composer, physician and counsellor to Habsburg Emperor Rudolf II Habsburg. The webinar focusses in particular on Maier's Atalanta Fugiens (1618), a multimedia work containing 50 engraved emblems visualizing the alchemical stages and including corresponding epigrams, discourses and musical symphonies 'fugues', which he composed himself
Nothing is known about Maier's ideas on how to perform the fugues, though some believe they serve as auditory support during corresponding alchemical work in the laboratory...

Really interesting, but difficult to walk the line between ancient esoteric philosophy and roleplaying fantasy. I appreciate the pdf dump though, anon

I've been getting into this but apparently its discussion on /x/ is verboten (I think I called bs on some mod's arg and got kicked out)
They're a bit like Finnegans Wake what with being multilayered and multireferential. Quite good fun imo.
