Secret Wisdom by Ruth Clydesdale

Secret Wisdom is a profusely illustrated exploration of the Western mystery tradition and its development through the centuries. Aspects of the tradition can be seen to have influenced the growth of Christianity, the culture of the Renaissance, and even the great discoveries of astronomy and experimental science. The book explains this hidden current of knowledge and demonstrates how profoundly important it has been, subtly yet strongly influencing our culture in a variety of ways.
Ruth Clydesdale has published articles in journals in both the United Kingdom and the United States on various aspects of art, religion, and philosophy. She has lectured on the Renaissance philosopher Marsilio Ficino, and has run seminars on the philosophy of astrology and the esoteric meanings of the planet Mercury.
