Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. 5th or later Edition. Second printing of the Guild Publishing book club edition published in 1988 [the book was first published by Routledge and Kegan Paul in 1985, and by Book Club Associates in 1986]. This Guild Publishing edition uses the same quality bin…ding as the Routledge first edition - not a cheaper binding as is often found with book club editions. ***Near fine in black cloth-covered boards with gilt titles to the spine. The gilt is still beautifully bright. Head and tail of spine slightly creased. Corners sharp. Spine tight. Internally also near fine, with no inscriptions - just a nice decorative bookplate to the front pastedown, partially hidden by the front flap. No creases, marks or tears - just top corner tip creasing to pp.235-240. Pages clean. ***In a very good illustrated dustwrapper, which is unpriced, showing the book club code 'CN 6737' instead. Edges of dustwrapper slightly rubbed and creased. Head and tail of spine of dustwrapper also slightly creased and rubbed. Spine of dustwrapper is faded [very common with this title due to the sun-sensitive pink colour used]. No chips or tears. Dustwrapper bright. ***242mm x164mm. 511 pages including Appendices and Index at the back of the book. *** '"Magick" is Crowley's masterpiece, the work into which he poured his knowledge of the Astral and other planes. It is in three parts, the first two of which treat of the principles of Yoga, and of Ceremonial Magic as taught in the Golden Dawn where he served his apprenticeship from 1898 to 1900. The third and major part, which was written mainly in his Abbey of Thelma in Sicily between 1920 and 1923, contains his own system of practical occultism. Crowley's "Magick" is a doctrine and a technique for establishing contact with extra-terrestrial entities - spirits, demons, elementals - for the purpose of extending human consciousness and expanding life to cosmic proportions. He replaced the Ceremonial rites as taught in the Golden Dawn by rites of a sexual kind. These were developed from Tantric and Alchemical sources. From Tantra he formed his own method of arousing the Kundalini force; from Alchemy he derived a technique for transmuting the sexual energies into elixirs of magical potency. The whole of Crowley's doctrine is based on "The Book of the Law" in which the future of humanity - the establishment on earth of a New Order - is outlined' [Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper] ***Second printing of the book club edition, complete in its original dustwrapper, in nice collectable condition. The book is beautifully produced. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Steffi Grant [Jacket illustration] (ilustrador).
