| adam_text | One would be hard-pressed to put together an assemblage of people to equal the
scholars included in this collection
—
the cream of the crop of those esoteric schol¬
ars who have studied Crowley. The volume makes a significant contribution to
esoteric studies and will set future debates about Crowley. It will be a must-read
text for all esoteric scholars in the next generation.

THIS VOLUME IS THE FIRST COMPREHENSIVE EXAMINATION
of one of the twentieth century s most distinctive iconoclasts. Aleister Crowley
(1875—
1947)
was a study in contradictions. Born into a fundamentalist Christian family and
educated at Cambridge, he was vilified as a traitor, drug addict, and
débaucher,
yet
revered as perhaps the most influential thinker in contemporary esoteric ism. Moving
beyond the influence of contemporary psychology and the modernist understanding
of the occult, Crowley declared himself the
revelator
of a new age of individualism.
Crowley s occult
bricolage, Magick,
was an eclectic combination of spiritual exercis¬
es drawn from Western European magical ceremonies and Indie sources for medita¬
tion and yoga. This journey of self-liberation culminated in harnessing sexual power
as a magical discipline, a sacrilization of the self as practiced in Crowley s mixed
masonic group, the
Ordo
Templi Orientis.
The religion Crowley created, Thelema,
legitimated his role as a charismatic
revelator
and herald of a new age of freedom.
Aleister Crowley s lasting influence can be seen in the counter-culture movement of
the late
1960s
and early
1970s
and in many forms of alternative spirituality and popu¬
lar culture. The essays in this volume offer crucial insight into Crowley s foundation-
al role in the study of Western esotericism, new religious movements, and sexuality.
