Der Magnetismus

The History of Magic

L'autore, medico studioso dei fenomeni del magnetismo animale indagati da Mesmer, rivisita le origini della magia alla luce di quelle nuove scoperte. Non rinuncia alla fede, o almeno alla possibilità, di un'influenza diretta divina sui fenomeni profetici, ma cerca di illuminare con le nuove conoscenze scientifiche tutte le testimonianze storiche di quei fenomeni di sonnambulismo e di profezia di grado inferiore. In questo volume, pubblicato nel 1854, tratta in particolare della magia in Egitto, in Israele, in Grecia e a Roma.

If the Shemitic races had already lost the inner communion with nature, and the susceptibility to all higher spiritual impressions, how much more must this have been the case among the descendants of Japhet. In accordance with their naturally impulsive feelings and unstable character, they always made, during their extension over the earth, nature and its appearances, rather than the Divine Spirit, the object of their strivings; their instinct explored every nook and hidden valley of the many countries lying beyond the rivers and mountains; but they had lost the recollection ol the Almighty, or at most retained but a faint reflection of the divine power which, like their mind, was deeply imbued with the material; for the divine light was no longer able to reflect itself in the dimmed and confused surface of theu- inner being. However, these children of Japhet did not all sink into the darkness of a perfectly spiritless world of matter; some of them, as the Greeks, the Germans, carried with them the idea of God, and the presentiment of a connection with a higher and more spiritua...
