Fiona’s Reviews > Thrice-Greatest Hermes: Studies in Hellenistic Theosophy and Gnosis (3 books in One ) Volumes I-II-III > Status Update

After reviewing the Corpus Hermeticum as a text, in today's Arcane Afternoon I tried to outline more of the way of life of the Hermetic philosophers, their idea of piety and love of nature. https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

Feel free to take a look at my review of the Volume II. in this book, the Corpus Hermeticum, at https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

It's one thing to read about philosophy, but this week began to think about our modern day and what the Hermetic teachings make of it. If you're interested, I invite you to read my reflections on the topic at https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

Thus I finished Volume I - Prolegomena. It's been a difficult read, but also very enlightening. A better understanding of this text's topic, as well as some light on how to approach the reading, I tried to summarize in my post at https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

Returning to simpler things, Mead offers a selection of Philo's own writings, thus letting us glimpse into Alexandrian Hellenistic Theology from times B.C. I have rendered a choice summary of Philo's words over at https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

What does it look like when a text has been copied and commentated several times through the course of two millennia? What, then, does such a text still tell us today? I think Mead did a very good job at enlightening us, which I tried to summarize in my bi-weekly blog article at https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

The core topic in the first chapters of Thrice-Greatest Hermes is the Poemandres, "The Shepherd of Men". It is a startling and very intricate myth, which I tried to summarize comprehensively in my newest article at: https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...

In order to understand all the things revolving around mysteries and symbolism within Vol. I., I wrote another article over at Arcane Afternoon. Feel free to give it a try! https://arcaneafternoon.wordpress.com...
