Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - Phallic Miscellanies is one of a number of works on the issue of phallic symbols, the yoni, sex magic, and pagan ritualism written in the 1890s by an unknown author generally assumed to be Hargrave Jennings. It is a fairly deep work, with numerous references to Hindu scripture and some minor forays into Islam and Buddhism.The symbolism is, in Hinduism, fairly explicit- the lingam and yoni are worshiped openly and, in a more literal sense by some sub-schools of Hindu thought. In its era of manufacture this book was utterly taboo, hence its privately printed status, and would have shocked the audience with lurid depictions of 'degenerated' worship, by Western standards at the time.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. "Archaic Rock Inscriptions" is one of several companion works to "Ophiolatreia" and "Cultus Arborum." Dwelling mostly on British and Irish stone carvings, it seeks to reconcile the widespread prevalence of cup-shaped and similar markings all over the world to one another and determine, through the profuse use of secondary sources, the historical origin and purpose of the same. Containing important if partially dated material for the academic and a good springboard to other works for the occultist, it is a fine text infinitely worthy of modern consideration. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…

50 large paper copies signed by the author. Sm.4to, (225mm), 83p. decorated initial at the start of each page heightened by hand in red. Original grey paper-covered boards, discoloured, and rubbed at the head of the backstrip.

12mo: 8 pp. Leaf dimensions 18 x 11.5 cm. Unbound. Stitched as issued. Good, on lightly-aged paper with foxing to first page. Complete: paginated [1] to 8, and with 'Finis.' at the end. The full title reads 'Lines | Drawn and ornamentally inscribed on a White Silk Riband with which, and many other complimentary tributes of the same description, the Editor was decorated at an entertainment given to him, and a large party of noble friends, by the Baron and Baroness Von Sass, at their seat of Tadaiken, in the Duchy of Courland, on 21st November, 1790, on his entering into the 14th year of his age.' (The Oxford DNB, taking its lead from Tooke's obituary in the Gentleman's Magazine, gives his birth date as 22 November 1777.) The four lines of French verse referred to in the title are ascribed to 'Louise Sass, 19 Nov., 1790.' Five pages describe the origin of the association of 'the Editor' (i.e. Tooke) with the 'noble family' of Sass, beginning in St. Petersburg, where Took's father, William Tooke the elder, 'the then Chaplain to the British Factory', 'was the delight and the ornament [.] of every social circle'. The account ends with a list of the 'guests and their families attending or invited on the occasion'. Followed by a short article (pp. 5-6) on the Bloomsbury Inns of Court Association, described as a 'Rifle-movement'. Tooke reproduces a letter to him by George Bramwell. The last two pages (7-8) reproduce a poem entitled 'M. M. M. | Lines by an Ancestor of the Editor in explanation of the above initials. | A key to the Hedgehog combatant and my motto Militia Mea Multiplex. M. M. M. | By George Tooke, Esq., of Popes, Herts'. Long footnote by William Tooke on the subject. An excessively scarce piece of 'Tookiana' (a phrase employed in Tooke's Gentleman's Magazine obituary): no copy listed in the British Library catalogue, on COPAC or on WorldCat.…
