The texts form the basis of Hermeticism, which is a religious, philosophical, and esoteric tradition that held great importance during both the Renaissance and the Reformation periods. The work discusses the divine, the cosmos, the mind, alchemy, astrology, and nature.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Corpus Hermeticum\u003c\/em\u003e dwells upon the oneness and goodness of God, urges purification of the soul, and discusses a spiritual rebirth through the enlightenment of the mind. Much of the importance of Hermeticism arises from its connection with the development of science between 1300 to 1600 AD. The prominence that it gave to the idea of influencing or controlling nature led many scientists to look to magic and its allied arts. Sir Isaac Newton placed great faith in the concept of an unadulterated, pure, ancient doctrine, which he studied vigorously to aid his understanding of the physical world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis case laminate collector's edition includes a Victorian inspired dust-jacket. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Hermes Trismegistus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1774378450\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781774378458\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Royal Classics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/29\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 90\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.38d","brand":"Hermes Trismegistus","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44053798387967,"sku":"9781774378458","price":39.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_59673d55-19c1-4e24-96e3-e4fbd43d01ae.jpg?v=1685026324","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-corpus-hermeticum-royal-collectors-hermes-trismegistus-9781774378458","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
