Announcing a new class!
Renaissance magicians believed in pansophia, that one person could contain all the knowledge of the cosmos. They developed an Art of Memory designed to contain all of this information, based on their understanding of learning, imagination, and the occult properties of the soul. Why did the Art of Memory disappear, and how can rediscovering it help the modern magician pursue their occult studies?
About this Class
In this class, we will explore the history of the Art of Memory, including its philosophical underpinnings in ancient Greek thought, Hermetic philosophy, and Renaissance magic. We will look at the techniques of Plato, Cicero, Giulio Camillo, Giordano Bruno, and others to discover how the Art of Memory can be incorporated into a modern practice to pursue the goal of universal wisdom.
This class teaches:
- An overview of the history of the Art of Memory
- Memory as the fourth Inner Sense of interior perception
- Several of Bruno’s memory seals and how to use them
- Uses of the Art of Memory in a magical practice
