Eliphas Levi is the pseudonym of Alphonse-Louis Constant (1810-1875), a French
ecclesiastic and a leading figure in occultism.
In this book, one of Levi's last writings, he formulates his convictions in a
clear and accessible way. His literary range is on display as he presents
himself in a series of short, rich fictional dialogues with representatives of
"all the religious and philosophical polemics of the present day": a
reactionary Catholic apologist, a priest, a philosopher, a pantheist, a Jew, a
Protestant, a doctor, a scientist, a spiritualist and finally an esotericist
like himself.
He highlights his differences and often surprising agreements with each of
these worldviews. In the second half of the book, Lévi formulates his doctrine
in a series of short, topical chapters with enumerated aphorisms. These touch
on religion, morality, nature, (animal) magnetism, death, Satan, occultism,
faith, science and other subjects.
