Aleister Crowley and Western Esotericism

Edited by Henrik Bogdan and Martin P. Starr, this collection of scholarly essays examines Aleister Crowley's place in the history of Western esotericism. Contributors consider his relationship to earlier esoteric currents, his magical and religious thought, his influence on later movements, and his reception in wider culture. It is a key academic resource that situates Crowley within broader religious and intellectual contexts rather than treating him in isolation.
