House of Living Books: the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica
Description
‘As above, so below.’ It is one of the most important principles in the so-called Hermetic philosophy, named after the Egyptian sage Hermes Trismegistus. It means that the cosmos, humans and nature are intricately interconnected on both a spiritual and a material level. The cosmos is reflected in man, man is reflected in the cosmos. Exhibition at Embassy of the Free Mind.
Stimulate your mind
In the 15th century, when this philosophy was rediscovered, it was an inspiring thought that made people look at the world - and themselves - with different eyes. Care for nature, the equality of men and women, of all peoples, religions and races, and our modern understanding of what it means to be human, have their origins in this philosophy.
The Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica - the Library of Hermetic Philosophy - is the library collection of the Embassy of the Free Mind. The collection comprises more than 28,000 books, including about 2,300 ancient books and three hundred manuscripts from the 15th, 16th, 17th and 18th centuries; rare, often beautifully illustrated works. In the exhibition House of Living Books - The Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica, you can see a cross-section of this collection. Not only Hermetic philosophy but also related movements such as alchemy, kabbalah, mysticism, Christian theosophy, Rosicrucianism, astrology, magic and free thinking, in general, are on display. For in all these currents the important principles of Hermetic philosophy can be found.
Feast your eyes on beautiful old books, discover the wisdom and freedom of thought in all these movements and stimulate your mind!
