Eliphas Lévi, Master of the Tarot, The Cabala, snd the Secret Doctrines.Eliphas Levi, author of The Dogma and Ritual of High Magic, is the leading figure in the modern revival of interest in occult and esoteric thought and the insights it offers into the spirit and destiny of man. Perhaps no other figure of his time represents so clearly and openly—without pretense or unnecesary secretiveness—the teachings of the Cabala, the tarot and the secret doctrines in their relation to contemporary intellectual history. The unusual thing about Eliphas Lévi, when he is compared to other occultists, is his good humor, his openness and his smile. For all his erudition he remained as he always had been—a spiritual guide who cared deeply for his students.
