Esotericism and the Academy: Rejected Knowledge in Western Culture
Hanegraaff, Wouter J. (Professor of History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents, Universiteit van Amsterdam)
Hanegraaff reveals the neglected history of how intellectuals since the Renaissance have tried to come to terms with ideas of the 'esoteric' and 'occult', present in Western culture. He asks what implications this forgotten history of exclusion has for established textbook narratives of religion, philosophy and science.
