Hermes. The Mysteries of Egypt

MediaКнига Studio presents the third release of “Hermes,” a world-famous work by the French philosopher Édouard Schuré—“The Great Initiates,” translated into many languages, including Russian.

“In contrast to Babylon, the gloomy homeland of despotism, Egypt was, for the ancient world, the true stronghold of sacred science—a school for its most glorious prophets, a refuge, and at the same time a laboratory for the noblest traditions of humankind. Thanks to countless excavations and excellent scholarly works, the Egyptian people are known to us as no civilization before Greece, for it unfolds all its history before us—written on pages of stone. Many of its monuments have been restored, many of its hieroglyphs deciphered and read; and yet there remains for us the task of penetrating into the depths of the sanctuary of its thought.”
