R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz
As a contemporary “renaissance man,” R. A. Schwaller de Lubicz may fall into that category of genius shared by such luminaries as Rudolf Steiner and Emanuel Swedenborg. He combined the talents of social reformer, artist, scientist, visionary, and mystic to formulate ideas that were so far ahead of their time they seemed doomed, until recently, to be ignored.
This work represents the first important breakthrough in our comprehension of Egypt since Champollion deciphered the Rosetta Stone. The author’s penetration of its symbolism and his intuitive reading of the hieroglyphs situates Egypt, not Greece, as the cradle of our Western heritage. His work serves as a guide that will initiate the reader into the authentic tone, structure, and mentality of Egyptian wisdom.
