It contains the twenty-nine fragments from Stobaeus (including the famous Kore Kosmou), the Oxford and Vienna fragments (never before translated), an expanded selection of fragments from various authors (including Zosimus of Panopolis, Augustine, and Albert the Great), and testimonies about Hermes from thirty-eight authors (including Cicero, Pseudo-Manetho, the Emperor Julian, Al-Kind?, Michael Psellus, the Emerald Tablet, and Nicholas of Cusa). All translations are accompanied by introductions and notes which cite sources for further reading. These Hermetic texts will appeal to a broad array of readers interested in western esotericism including scholars of Egyptology, the New Testament, the classical world, Byzantium, medieval Islam, the Latin Middle Ages, and the Renaissance.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eGeneral introduction\u003cbr\u003e Stobaean Hermetica (SH 1–29)\u003cbr\u003e Oxford Hermetica (OH 1–5)\u003cbr\u003e Vienna Hermetica (VH 1–2)\u003cbr\u003e Hermetic fragments from various authors (FH 1–45)\u003cbr\u003e Testimonies concerning Hermes Thrice Great (TH 1–38).\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Bible readings, selections \u0026amp; meditations [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Bible readings, selections \u0026amp; meditations\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Bible%20readings,%20selections%20\u0026amp;%20meditations%20%5BHRCG9%5D%22\"\u003eHRCG9\u003c\/a\u003e], Biblical commentaries [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Biblical commentaries\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Biblical%20commentaries%20%5BHRCG1%5D%22\"\u003eHRCG1\u003c\/a\u003e], New Testaments [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on New Testaments\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22New%20Testaments%20%5BHRCF2%5D%22\"\u003eHRCF2\u003c\/a\u003e], Church history [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Church history\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Church%20history%20%5BHRCC2%5D%22\"\u003eHRCC2\u003c\/a\u003e], History of religion [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on History of religion\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22History%20of%20religion%20%5BHRAX%5D%22\"\u003eHRAX\u003c\/a\u003e], Classical history \/ classical civilisation [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Classical history \/ classical civilisation\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Classical%20history%20\/%20classical%20civilisation%20%5BHBLA1%5D%22\"\u003eHBLA1\u003c\/a\u003e], Ancient history: to c 500 CE [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Ancient history: to c 500 CE\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Ancient%20history:%20to%20c%20500%20CE%20%5BHBLA%5D%22\"\u003eHBLA\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45909029585176,"sku":"9781107182530","price":97.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/products\/9781107182530i_a5618b4f-1911-4e05-ae67-42b547405403.jpg?v=1691362618","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/hermetica-ii-the-excerpts-of-stobaeus-papyrus-fragments-and-ancient-testimonies-in-an-english-translation-with-notes-and-introduction-hardback-9781107182530","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
