3.0 out of 5 stars Papus didn't hide the truth, but he veiled it really well!!!, July 10, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Tarot of the Bohemians (Paperback)
"Experience has shown us that anything can be fearlessly said. Only those who should understand will understand; the others will accuse our work of being obscure and incomprehensible." Such does Papus describe his literary style... and it IS virtually incomprehensible! But for those who understand the work, by stopping to think about what is being said, and by contemplating the Qaballistic correspondences with IEVE which the author proposes, one can glean from this book several truths. However I don't recommend it to beginners. Moreover, whoever reads it should bear in mind that 1) they have to make a choice between the "Martinist" or French Qaballistic correspondences Papus gives, and the Golden Dawn correspondences. 2) they have to keep in mind that Papus is now outdated in such areas as philology (when he mentions the Hebrew alphabet)... thus I suggest this book only to the well-read on the topic... as it may be confusing. However, I repeat that this book has given me much to think about ... so many questions have arisen since I read the book, about IEVE in nature etc. etc. If you feel up to it... read it!
