Abstract

Between 1999 and 2009, the chair for History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents at the University of Amsterdam succeeded in establishing itself as the most important centre for study and teaching in this domain, and strongly contributed to the establishment of Western esotericism as a recognised academic field of research. This volume was published at the occasion of the 10th anniversary. It contains a history of the creation and development of the chair, followed by articles on aspects of Western esotericism by the previous and current staff members, contributions by students and Ph.D. students about the study program, and reflections by international top specialists about the field of research and its academic development.

Abstract

Few fields of academic research are surrounded by so many misunderstandings and misconceptions as the study of Western esotericism. For twenty years now, the Centre for History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents (University of Amsterdam) has been at the forefront of international scholarship in this domain. This anniversary volume seeks to make the modern study of Western esotericism known beyond specialist circles, while addressing a range of misconceptions, biases, and prejudices that still tend to surround it. Thirty major scholars in the field respond to questions about a wide range of unfamiliar ideas, traditions, practices, problems, and personalities that are central to this area of research. By challenging many taken-for-granted assumptions about religion, science, philosophy, and the arts, this volume demonstrates why the academic study of esotericism leads us to reconsider much that we thought we knew about the story of Western culture.

Abstract

(Bron: covertekst) Vroeger gaf God diepere zin aan het leven, nu gaapt de kloof van ontreddering en zinloosheid. De ondraaglijke lichtheid van het bestaan wordt ingevuld door een bonte verscheidenheid aan ideeën, stromingen en ervaringen. Jos Vranckx toont de talloze manieren waarop mensen zin zoeken: van antroposofie en hooliganisme tot moederschap en , van fitness en reïncarnatie tot erotiek en zielshulp, van magie en drugs tot Madonna en mystiek, van sekten en sport tot diëten en nihilisme.
