The Mystic and Hermetic Schools in Christian Times is a comprehensive study of the various mystical and esoteric traditions that emerged within Christianity during the medieval and Renaissance periods. Written by John Yarker, a prominent British occultist and historian of esotericism, this book explores the connections between Christian mysticism and the Hermetic tradition, which was a philosophical and spiritual movement that emerged in ancient Egypt and Greece.Yarker's book provides a detailed examination of the various mystical and esoteric schools that emerged within Christianity, including the Gnostics, the Manichaeans, the Cathars, and the Rosicrucians. He also explores the influence of Hermeticism on Christian mysticism, particularly in the areas of alchemy, astrology, and magic.Throughout the book, Yarker draws on a wide range of primary sources, including ancient texts, medieval manuscripts, and Renaissance treatises, to provide a comprehensive and detailed account of the development of Christian mysticism and its connections to the Hermetic tradition. He also provides a critical analysis of the various schools and movements, highlighting their strengths and weaknesses, and exploring the ways in which they contributed to the development of Western esotericism.Overall, The Mystic and Hermetic Schools in Christian Times is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of Western esotericism, Christian mysticism, and the Hermetic tradition.
