The Myths of the Magus is a book written by E. M. Butler, which delves into the history and mythology surrounding the figure of the Magus. The book explores the various cultural and religious traditions that have contributed to the development of the Magus archetype, including ancient Greek philosophy, Gnosticism, Hermeticism, and alchemy. Butler also examines the role of the Magus in literature and popular culture, from the medieval tales of Merlin and Faust to the modern-day depictions of wizards in fantasy novels and films. Throughout the book, Butler challenges common assumptions and misconceptions about the Magus, offering a nuanced and insightful perspective on this fascinating figure. The Myths of the Magus is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of magic and the occult, as well as those interested in the intersection of myth, religion, and literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
