Greta Garbo has often been depicted as a lonely recluse. The truth is very different. Once described as 'rather a crazy mystic Swede', Garbo was an independent spiritual explorer whose sense of connection to the natural world was profound. She was a cosmocentric thinker drawn to occult ideas. Moon Laramie maps the essential aspects of self-actualisation, as defined by psychologist Abraham Maslow, onto Garbo's spiritual journey. These include a profound sense of self; recognition of her own essential unity with nature and all life; living fully in the moment; being unrestricted by national or cultural boundaries in the way she viewed the world. Laramie argues that it was Garbo's spiritual sense that enabled her to triumph over Hollywood, defying the patriarchal pressures of both the studio system and wider society. 'All true artists, like all true mystics, have illumination in a lesser or a greater degree.' Mercedes de Acosta on Garbo

Isis Unveiled, published in 1877, was H. P. Blavatsky's original occult masterpiece and covered a wide range of topics from ancient Egyptian Mystery schools to the conflict between science and spiritualism. But Blavatsky's elaborate Victorian prose presents a major stumbling block for the 21st-century reader. Blavatsky Unveiled Vol. I addresses these linguistic challenges by rendering the original text into easily accessible modern English with detailed notes and a comprehensive 'Who's Who' section. All references have been meticulously researched and, where possible, verified from their primary source material. Blavatsky Unveiled Vol. I is a psychedelic rollercoaster ride through a world of Gnostics, Kabbalists, Chaldean Oracles, cataclysms, seances, skeptical scientists, perpetual lamps, phantom dogs and Indian conjurors, to name a few. Along the way the reader encounters such figures as Pythagoras, Paracelsus, Darwin, Schopenhauer, Isaac Newton, Julius Caesar, Plato, Galileo, the spirit entity Katie King, Franz Mesmer, Aristotle, Eliphas Levi and many more. Seekers of hidden knowledge and those interested in the supernatural will find Blavatsky Unveiled an indispensable treasure trove of information and rip-roaring entertainment.

Art and Theosophy: Texts by Martin Firrell and A. L. Pogosky (Modern Theosophy)

This volume explores the insight modern Theosophy can offer into the spiritual and social dimensions of art, artistic practice and creativity. It is part of a series of writings, collected under the banner 'Modern Theosophy' re-presenting important texts drawn from the history of the Theosophical movement and further complemented by texts from contemporary authors and innovative thinkers. Martin Firrell is a contemporary theosophist and a public artist using language in public space to engage directly with the public. His work promotes constructive dialogues about marginalisation, equality and more equitable social organisation, with the aim of making the world more humane. Aleksandra Loginovna Pogosskaia, A. L. Pogosky, or Madame Pogosky was a Russian emigre, an activist and business woman promoting Russian art in the West. She became a member of the Theosophical Society in 1909 drawn to the Society's object of forming a 'universal brotherhood of humanity'. She applied this idea to communal work in the arts. The Theosophical Society was founded in 1875 to explore the interconnectedness of all life, the universal wisdoms held in ancient religions and myths, and the potential latent in human beings.

Jane Anger is credited with being the first feminist writer in the English language. Her pamphlet Protection for Women provides insight into the relationship between the sexes, regarded, for the first time, solely from a woman's perspective. Anger's text refutes the content of a now lost pamphlet Book his Surfeit in Love which outlines the complaints against women of 'a surfeiting lover', rendered in this modern edition as an 'over-indulging lover' who has 'gorged on sex'. This volume presents the first translation of Anger's pamphlet into modern English together with exhaustive explanatory notes. For the first time, Jane Anger's witty and wily advice to women is easily accessible to a modern reader. This edition also includes Jane Anger's original text for anyone interested in experiencing the unique 'music' of the 16th-century English.
