Diary of a drug fiend - aleister crowley - e-kniha

eBook: Diary of a Drug Fiend (1922) is a novel by Aleister Crowley. Published at the height of his career as a poet and occultist, his debut novel draws on Crowley’s experiences as a heroin addict. Despite his lifelong struggle, Crowley’s penchant for recreational drug use and scientific informed many of the tenets of his religion Thelema. Diary of a Drug Fiend would inspire such musicians as Ozzy Osbourne, The Lemonheads, and The Beatles. Before there was Sir Peter Pendragon, decorated pilot and veteran of the First World War, there was Peter, a dedicated medical student with his whole life ahead of him. After the war, he struggles with depression and ennui while living off an inheritance from a deceased uncle. Alongside his lover Louise Laleham, he develops a passion for heroin and cocaine, which lead them across Europe in a series of drug-fueled escapades. Back in England, they attempt to use magick as a means of breaking their dependencies, but soon find themselves hopelessly lost in the world of addiction. At their lowest point, they meet Basil King Lamus, a powerful magician who offers them a way out. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Aleister Crowley’s Diary of a Drug Fiend is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

This revised and expanded second edition brings together the uncollected short fiction of the poet, writer and religious philosopher Aleister Crowley (1875-1947). Of the fifty-four stories in the present volume, only thirty-five were published in his lifetime. Most of the rest appear in this collection for the first time.Crowley was a successful critic, editor and author of fiction from 1908 to 1922. Like their author, his stories are fun, smart, witty, thought-provoking and sometimes unsettling. They are set in places in which he had lived, and knew well: Belle Epoque Paris, Edwardian London, pre-revolutionary Russia and America during the First World War.The title story The Drug stands as one of the first accounts - if not the first - of a psychedelic experience. His Black and Silver is a knowing early noir discovery that anticipates an entire genre. Atlantis is a masterpiece of occult fantasy that can stand with Samuel Butler's Erewhon.Frank Harris considered The Testament of Magdalen Blair the most terrifying tale ever written. This second edition adds several additional stories, including the Qabalistic allegory Ambrosii Magi Hortus Rosarum, featuring the author's previously unpublished annotations. Extensive editorial end-notes give full details about the stories. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

eBook:,Crowley žil v Berlíně v posledních dnech Výmarské republiky a nástupu Adolfa Hitlera k moci, v letech 1930–1932. Jako prorok vlastního synkretického náboženství „thelémy“ a avantgardní umělec se usadil v liberálním prostředí moderního Berlína, kde v té době spolu s ním působila řada předních vědců, umě ců a dalších významných osobností, mezi něž patřili například Albert Einstein, Bertolt Brecht, Ethel Mannin, Otto Dix, Aldous Huxley, Jean Ross, Christopher Isherwood a mnoho dalších. Znalec historie nzápadního esoterismu Tobias Churton líčí toto období Crowleyho života – jeho uměleckou tvorbu i bohatších materiálů Crowleyho mnohotvárnou osobnost a její působení v klíčovém okamžiku dějin moderního lidstva.

Kniha lží (s podtitulem "neprávem tak zvaná") patří mezi nejsvéráznější díla slovutného britského magika a učitele Aleistera Crowleyho (1875-1947). Poprvé publikovaná krátce před první světovou válkou, Kniha lží obsahuje přes devadesát kapitol, z nichž většina se vejde na pouhou jedinou stranu. Její obsah tvoří mystické traktáty, pokyny k magickým obřadům, filosofické úvahy, básně, humorné příběhy a mlhavá podobenství či jinotaje. Téma kapitoly vždy závisí na kabalistickém významu jejího pořadového čísla. Crowley asi v roce 1921 napsal ke každé kapitole krátké objasnění; tyto komentáře jsme do českého vydání zahrnuli rovněž. Kniha lží byla a zůstává jedním z Crowleyho nejpřístupnějších a současně nejmnohoznačnějších děl. Je nejen vhodným studijním materiálem pro každého zájemce o thelému a novodobou magii, ale i podnětným literárním dílem, které dokáže oslovit každého. (knihydobrovsky.cz)

eBook: Mr Pooter is a man of modest ambitions, content with his ordinary life. Yet he always seems to be troubled by disagreeable tradesmen, impertinent young office clerks and wayward friends, not to mention his devil-may-care son Lupin with his unsuitable choice of bride. Try as he might, he cannot avoid life\'s embarrassing mishaps. In the bumbling, absurd, yet ultimately endearing figure of Pooter, the Grossmiths created an immortal comic character and a superb satire on the snobberies of middle-class suburbia - one which also sends up late Victorian crazes for spiritualism and bicycling, as well as the fashion for publishing diaries by anybody and everybody.

V Crowleyho bohatej básnickej a prozaickej tvorbe vynikajú príbehy jedného z najbizarnejších detektívov na svete menom Simon Iff, známeho pod prezývkou Skromný Simon. Autorovo literárne alter ego je už pán v požehnanom veku, napriek tomu vykazujúci fyzickú aj intelektuálnu vitalitu mladíka. Iff dodržiava zdravú životosprávu, cvičí jogu, ale nepohrdne kvalitným mokom a obľúbeným fajčivom. Je skvelý šachista a zároveň znalec západných aj východných ezoterických systémov, dokáže sa blysnúť taoistickými múdrosťami, je vyznávačom thelémskej filozofie a zároveň má v malíčku poznatky modernej hlbinnej psychológie, stojí skrátka rozkročený medzi nadzmyslovým svetom a moderným svetom vedy, hoci v tom prvom sa evidentne cíti lepšie. Skromný Simon nepotrebuje klasické detektívne propriety ani vyšetrovacie postupy a pátranie v teréne, pretože v konfrontácii s jeho brilantnou mysľou, vycvičenou v mágii, šachu aj psychoanalýze, by boli krvopotne získavané stopy a fakty zbytočnou nadprácou.

Život světoznámého okultisty a esoterika Aleistera Crowleyho (1875-1947) je bytostně spjat s Knihou Zákona, kterou obdržel během mystické zkušenosti na jaře 1904 v Káhiře. Crowley věnoval jejímu zkoumání značnou část svého života a považoval ji za Zjevení odhalující nový duchovní Zákon, jenž povede lidstvo k duchovní svrchovanosti, soběstačnosti a svobodě. Kniha Zákona aneb Liber Legis stojí na fundamentálním přikázání "Dělej, co ty chceš, ať je celý Zákon", což znamená nutnost jedince objevit svou pravou vůli a následně zasvětit svůj život jejímu konání. Je základem duchovní filosofie známé jako theléma, již Crowley později rozvinul do podoby úplného nábožensko-esoterického systému. Mnohovrstevnost Knihy Zákona přiměla Crowleyho sepsat k ní rozsáhlé komentáře. V publikaci Dělej, co ty chceš, ať je celý Zákon jsme je doplnili poznámkami Sebastiána Jahiče, jakož i pojednáním "Liber 31" Crowleyho žáka Fratera Achada (občanským jménem Charles Stansfeld Jones, 1886-1950). Komentáře ke Knize Zákona vycházejí česky poprvé. Publikace obsahuje několik dalších souvisejících Crowleyho textů, pročež je zevrubnější a úplnější než většina zahraničních vydání. Samotná Kniha Zákona je vyhotovena v úplně novém překladu. (knihydobrovsky.cz)
