Franz Bardon (December 1, 1909 – July 10, 1958), born in Opava, Austrian Silesia, was both a stage magician and student and teacher of Hermetics. He was member of Czech hermetic society Universalia. During World War II Bardon was at one point held in a concentration camp for refusing to participate in Nazi Mysticism. Bardon was rescued by Russian soldiers who raided the camp. Bardon continued his work in the fields of Hermetics until 1958 when he was arrested and imprisoned in Brno Czechoslovakia. Bardon died on July 10, 1958 while in the custody of police. He is best known for his three volumes on Hermetic magic. These volumes are Initiation Into Hermetics, The Practice of Magical Evocation and The Key to the True Quabbalah. Additionally there was a fourth work attributed to him by the title of Frabato the Magician, supposed to be a disguised autobiography.

Saul Bellow
A fost primul romancier care a câștigat National Book Award de trei ori. În 1976, a câștigat Premiul Nobel pentru literatură, premiul National Medal of Arts, în 1990 National Book Foundation Medal. Saul Bellow (10 iunie 1915 – 5 aprilie 2005) a fost unul dintre cei mai cunoscuți prozatori evrei americani. S-a născut în Lachine, Québec (Canada) într-o familie de evrei, emigrați din Sankt Petersburg (Rusia). Când avea 9 ani familia s-a mutat în Chicago, Illinois (USA), unde Bellow urmează cursurile Universității din Chicago, dar renunță și își ia un B.A. în sociologie și antropologie la Universitatea Northwestern. Chicago este și locul unde se desfășoară acțiunea multora din scrierile sale. S-a decis să devină scriitor după ce a citit romanul clasic al lui Harriet Becher Stowe "Coliba unchiului Tom". Bellow se mută în 1993 din Chicago la Brookline, Massachusetts, unde moare la 5 aprilie 2005, la vârsta de 89 ani. A fost ingropat în cimitirul evreiesc "Shir he-harim" din Brattleboro,...

Anatole France
Anatole France, pseudonym for Jacques Anatole Thibault (1844-1924), was the son of a Paris book dealer. He received a thorough classical education at the Collège Stanislas, a boys\' school in Paris, and for a while he studied at the École des Chartes. For about twenty years he held diverse positions, but he always had enough time for his own writings, especially during his period as assistant librarian at the Senate from 1876 to 1890. His literary output is vast, and though he is chiefly known as a novelist and storyteller, there is hardly a literary genre that he did not touch upon at one time or another. France is a writer in the mainstream of French classicism. His style, modelled on Voltaire and Fénélon, as well as his urbane scepticism and enlightened hedonism, continue the tradition of the French eighteenth century. This outlook on life, which appears in all his works, is explicitly expressed in collection of aphorisms, Le Jardin d\'Épicure (1895) [The Garden of...

Abdul al-Hazred
Abdul Alhazred is a fictional character created by American horror writer H. P. Lovecraft. He is the so-called "Mad Arab" credited with authoring the imaginary book Kitab al-Azif (the Necronomicon), and as such an integral part of Cthulhu Mythos lore. Despite the existence of several hoax Necronomicons, it is clear that neither Alhazred nor his book ever existed. The name Abdul Alhazred is a pseudonym that Lovecraft created in his youth, which he took on after reading 1001 Arabian Nights at the age of about five years. The name was invented either by Lovecraft, or by Albert Baker, the Phillips family lawyer. Abdul is a common Arabic name component (but never a name by itself; additionally the ending -ul and the beginning Al- are redundant), but Alhazred may allude to Hazard, a name from Lovecraft's family tree. It might also have been a pun on "all-has-read", since Lovecraft was an avid reader in youth. Abdul Alhazred is not a real Arabic name, and seems to contain the Arabic definite...

Nostradamus
Michel de Nostredame[1] (14 or 21 December 1503[2] – 2 July 1566), usually Latinised to Nostradamus, was a French apothecary and reputed seer who published collections of prophecies that have since become famous worldwide. He is best known for his book Les Propheties (The Prophecies), the first edition of which appeared in 1555. Since the publication of this book, which has rarely been out of print since his death, Nostradamus has attracted a following that, along with the popular press, credits him with predicting many major world events. Most academic sources maintain that the associations made between world events and Nostradamus's quatrains are largely the result of misinterpretations or mistranslations (sometimes deliberate) or else are so tenuous as to render them useless as evidence of any genuine predictive power.[3] Moreover, none of the sources listed offers any evidence that anyone has ever interpreted any of Nostradamus's quatrains specifically enough to allow a clear...

Iulian Sgarcitu
Iulian Sgarcitu s-a nascut la Braila pe 20.09.1968. Liceul „"Gheorghe Munteanu-Murgoci”" din orasul natal. Studii economice superioare, urmate de un masterat in management. Din anul 2000 isi ia inima in dinti si se expune oprobriului incepand sa publice pe site-ul www.poezie.ro . La indemnul unor entitati astrale cu gusturi literarea extravagante, debuteaza in anul 2006 cu volumul „"Glissando" ”. Lansarea oficiala a volumului a fost amanata in ultimul moment pentru ca autorul risca sa fie sufocat de fanii dezlantuiti . *** In anul 2014 publica la Editura Sfantul Ierarh Nicolae, sub pseudonimul Chris Bluemoon, volumul de versuri "Daca vei intreba". Raspunsul Marelui public la acest act de adanca si intensa cultura a fost de neimaginat: datorita tirajului insuficient cititorii prezenti la lansare s-au batut pe carti, sfasiindu-le pur si simplu in bucatele. Din fericire e-book ul poate fi descarcat de la adresa : librarie.bibliotecadigitala.ro ===

Khalil Gibran
Khalil Gibran (born Gubran Khalil Gubran bin Mikhā'īl bin Sa'ad; January 3, 1883 – April 10, 1931) also known as Kahlil Gibran, was a Lebanese American artist, poet, and writer. Born in the town of Bsharri in modern-day Lebanon (then part of the Ottoman Mount Lebanon mutasarrifate), as a young man he immigrated with his family to the United States where he studied art and began his literary career. He is chiefly known in the English speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, a series of philosophical essays written in English prose. An early example of Inspirational fiction, the book sold well despite a cool critical reception, and became extremely popular in the 1960s counterculture. Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu. In English, prior to his death: • The Madman (1918) Twenty Drawings (1919) • The Forerunner (1920) • The Prophet, (1923) • Sand and Foam (1926) • Kingdom of the Imagination (1927) • Jesus, The Son of Man...
