A short view of the Antinomian errours [[electronic resource] ] : with a briefe and plaine answer to them, as the heads of them lye in order in the next page of this booke. Being a nest of cursed errors hatched by hereticks, fed and nourished by their proselites; being taken as they were flying abroad were brought as the eagle doth her young ones to see if they could endure to looke upon the sun-beams of truth with fixed eyes, the which they could not; were presently adjudged to be a bastard-brood, and their necks chopt off, and their carkasses throwne to the dunghill.

• Sommario/riassunto: The relationship between Nazism and occultism has been an object of fascination and speculation for decades. Peter Staudenmaier’s Between Occultism and Nazism provides a detailed historical examination centered on the anthroposophist movement founded by Rudolf Steiner. Its surprising findings reveal a remarkable level of Nazi support for ; Waldorf schools, biodynamic farming, and other anthroposophist initiatives, even as Nazi officials attempted to suppress occult tendencies. The book also includes an analysis of anthroposophist involvement in the racial policies of Fascist Italy. Based on extensive archival research, this study offers rich material on controversial questions about the nature of esoteric spirituality and alternative cultural ideals and their political resonance.
