In 1896, Kremmerz began writing about natural and divine magic healing and alchemy through the journal Il Mondo Secreto (The Secret World). At the same time he founded a school known as the Schola Philosophica Hermetica Classica Italica as well as a magical group the Therapeutic and Magical Fraternity of Myriam. Within the Myriam he sought to use Hermetic magical and Pythagorean principles to harness the power of the psyche and convey collective energies for therapeutic purposes and distance healing. His initiatic order would become the principal esoteric society in Italy - - comparable to its British counterpart the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn - - but forced to be a carefully guarded secret as Mussolini's government rose to power. In this unique compilation of essays David Pantano presents an in - depth study of Kremmerz's life and work by his student and initiate Italian esotericist Marco Daffi. Without holding back criticism Daffi provides a detailed account of the history and practices of the Myriam as well as the metaphysical and Hermetic principles that guided their activities. Revealing Kremmerz's rediscovery of the occult healing of ancient mystery schools Daffi also shows how Kremmerz laid the foundation for passing this initiatory tradition on to the new millennium. He explores the means by which Kremmerz said miracles can be performed and the way Hermetic forces affect both bodily health and mystical eroticism. Throughout this collection David Pantano provides extensive annotations offering the English reader essential historical and mystical context for Daffi's work. Connecting to untranslated Italian texts and elucidating Daffi's poetic style Pantano's commentary reveals the particular tradition of Italian esoterism. Pantano also includes rare and unpublished texts written by Kremmerz and intended for the Myriam's practicing members. Combined these papers offer a picture of the inner workings and magical operations of this fraternity available for the first time in English.
