Summary

Gibbons explores the continued presence of esoteric mystical movements in western culture and its relevance to the history of medicine, science, philosophy, Freudian and Jungian psychology, radical political movements and imaginative literature. He emphasizes the secularization of occult spiritualities in the Romantic movement and beyond, stressing the social role of occult faiths as counter-culture and illuminating the influential role of the occult in much of what its taken to be typically "modern."
