Hermes Trismegistus collection

A series of Greek writings attributed to Hermes Trismegistus were written during Roman times and reflect the movement of Hermeticism. Hermeticism attempted to create a philosophical system with various influences from Platonism, Pythagoreanism, Judaism, Hellenistic magic, ancient Egyptian religion, ancient Greek mysteries, etc., as the changing ancient world turned to the search for the transcendental and the magical way of thinking.

The series includes 4 volumes:

• Discourses I-XI
• Discourses XII-XVIII
• Fragments – Testimonies
• Magical Texts – Kyranides

Each volume includes the original ancient text, its translation into modern Greek, and an introduction and/or commentary.
