From rumors about Gnostic orgies in antiquity to the explicit erotic symbolism of alchemical texts, from the subtly coded eroticism of medieval Kabbalah to the sexual magic practiced by contemporary occultists and
countercultural translations of Asian Tantra, the history of Western esotericism is rich in references to the domains of eros and sexuality. This volume, which brings together an impressive array of top-level
specialists, is the first to analyze the eroticism of the esoteric on the basis of expert scholarship and
attention to textual and historical detail.
While there are few domains in which the imagination can so easily run wild, the various contributions seek to distinguish fact from fiction?only to find that historical realities are sometimes even stranger than fantasies. In doing so, they reveal the outlines of a largely unknown history spanning more than twenty centuries.
