«The Light of Hermeticism» — a rigorous study of the authentic, classical hermeticism that took shape in Hellenistic Alexandria as a product of the synthesis of three great spiritual traditions of the ancient Mediterranean: Greek philosophy, Egyptian mysteries, and Jewish...
monotheism. This doctrine arose in a unique intellectual context of late Antiquity, where philosophers, priests, and prophets, merging in a unified pursuit of Truth, gave birth to the figure of Hermes Trismegistus — a collective image of Prophet and Teacher of humanity, bearer of revelation, transcendent wisdom, and spiritual light.
The book portrays hermeticism as an exalted metaphysical system in which rational knowledge and religious illumination unite into a whole. This is not just a historical artifact — it is a teaching that can be fully understood as a revelation of universal Genius, directed to all humanity. Its clarity, depth, and ability to answer eternal questions make it a primeval source from which later religious and esoteric traditions — from Neoplatonism to Kabbalah, from Sufism to Christian mysticism — drew inspiration and structure.
Forgotten with the end of Antiquity and only briefly flaring up in the Renaissance, the hermetic teaching reappears in this book in its original, unclouded form — like a light that fell once in the heart of the world, to be recognized again.
