Zanoni by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, Body, Mind & Spirit

- Hermetism & Rosicrucianism

Bag om Zanoni by Edward Bulwer-Lytton, Body, Mind & Spirit

One of the peculiarities of Bulwer was his passion for occult studies. They had a charm for him early in life, and he pursued them with the earnestness which characterized his pursuit of other studies. He became absorbed in wizard lore; he equipped himself with magical implements, -- with rods for transmitting influence, and crystal balls in which to discern coming scenes and persons; and communed with spiritualists and mediums. The fruit of these mystic studies is seen in _Zanoni_ and "A strange Story," romances which were a labor of love to the author, and into which he threw all the power he possessed, -- power re-enforced by multifarious reading and an instinctive appreciation of Oriental thought. A story of love and occult aspiration.
