Sinopsis

Although George William Russell aka A.E., was a poet, painter newspaper editor and political writer, working for three decades in the Irish cooperative movement, he is probably most well known today as a mystic. His writings on the subject resulting from his Hindu and Theosophical studies and his own visionary abilities, are of major importance to all who are interested in the unseen world.áThis volume contains all A.E.âÇÖs known writings on the subject. Not only are the texts of TheáCandle of Vision,áSong and Its Fountains,áThe Avatars,áThe InterpretersáandáImaginations and Reveriesáreprinted here, but so also are all his contributions toáThe Irish Theosophistáand other esoteric journals, his introductions and reviews of books, and the interview in Evans WentzâÇÖsáThe Fairy Faith in Celtic Countries. Also included is 'The Return,' a hitherto unpublished short work that may well have been the start of a book he felt unable to complete, together with an introductory note by Monk Gibbon.This volume, a Collected Edition of A.E,âÇÖs works, has an extensive introduction and copious notes by Raghavan lyer and Nandini Iyer which greatly increases the value of this book to the enquiring reader.á
