By encountering magical thought as theory, we come to a new understanding of a thought that looks back at us from a funhouse mirror."-from The Occult Mind Divination, like many critical modes, involves reading signs, and magic, more generally, can be seen as a kind of criticism that takes the universe-seen and unseen, known and unknowable-as its text. In The Occult Mind, Christopher I. Lehrich explores the history of magic in Western thought, suggesting a bold new understanding of the claims made about the power of various belief systems.In closely interlinked essays on such disparate topics as ley lines, the Tarot, the Corpus Hermeticum, writing and ritual in magical practice, and early attempts to decipher Egyptian hieroglyphics, Lehrich treats magic and its parts as an intellectual object that requires interpretive zeal on the part of readers/observers. Drawing illuminating parallels between the practice of magic and more recent interpretive systems-structuralism, deconstruction, semiotics-Lehrich deftly suggests that the specter of magic haunts all such attempts to grasp the character of knowledge. Offering a radical new approach to the nature and value of occult thought, Lehrich's brilliantly conceived and executed book posits magic as a mode of theory that is intrinsically subversive of normative conceptions of reason and truth. In elucidating the deep parallels between occult thought and academic discourse, Lehrich demonstrates that sixteenth-century occult philosophy often touched on issues that have become central to philosophical discourse only in the past fifty years. 606 $aMagic 606 $aOccultism 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMagic. 615 0$aOccultism. 676 $a133.4/3 700 $aLehrich$b Christopher I$0896050 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460036803321 996 $aThe occult mind$92449186 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01590nam0 22003973i 450 001 VEA0100663 005 20231121125920.0 010 $a8836511961 100 $a20211006d1997 ||||0itac50 ba 101 | $aita 102 $ait 181 1$6z01$ai $bxxxe 182 1$6z01$an 200 1 $aTurchia$eIstanbul, Ankara, Troia, Smirne, Efeso, Pamukkale, le coste e la Cappadocia$fTouring club italiano 205 $aRist. aggiornata 210 $aMilano$cTCI$dc1996$hstampa 1997 215 $a325 p., \1! c. di tav. ripieg.$cill.$d23 cm. 225 | $aGuide del mondo 410 0$1001CFI0117060$12001 $aGuide del mondo 606 $aTurchia$xGuide$2FIR$3RMLC083878$9I 676 $a915.610439$9$v21 710 02$aTouring club italiano$3CFIV002046$4070$05623 791 02$aTCI$3CFIV148662$zTouring club italiano 791 02$aTouring club of Italy$3CFIV178973$zTouring club italiano 791 02$aItalienischer Touring Club$3CFIV277665$zTouring club italiano 791 02$aTouring club editore$3CFIV323587$zTouring club italiano 791 02$aTouring club ciclistico italiano$3NAPV111118$zTouring club italiano 791 02$aConsociazione turistica italiana$3RAVV054909$yTouring club italiano 801 3$aIT$bIT-01$c20211006 850 $aIT-FR0017 899 $aBiblioteca umanistica Giorgio Aprea$bFR0017 $eN 912 $aVEA0100663 950 0$aBiblioteca umanistica Giorgio Aprea$d 52MAG 2 Coll N 11$e 52FLS0000174785 VMB RS $fA $h20200511$i20200511 977 $a 52 996 $aTurchia$9674471 997 $aUNICAS
