Sherlock Holmes Carlton House & Queen's Park ENHeb je ooit het verlangen gehad om met Sherlock Holmes door de straten van Victoriaans Londen te lopen op zoek naar professor Moriarty? Om in de haven te zoeken naar de reuzenrat van Sumatra? Om Baker Street in te lopen terwijl de mist binnenstroomt en Holmes te horen uitroepen: "Kom, Watson, kom! Het spel is begonnen!"? Nu kan je!

Heb je ooit het verlangen gehad om met Sherlock Holmes door de straten van Victoriaans Londen te lopen op zoek naar professor Moriarty? Om in de haven te zoeken naar de reuzenrat van Sumatra? Om Baker Street in te lopen terwijl de mist binnenstroomt en Holmes te horen uitroepen: "Kom, Watson, kom! Het spel is begonnen!"? Nu kan je! Je kunt het opiumhol onder de Goudstaaf betreden, maar pas op: het kan zijn dat kolonel Sebastian Moran om de hoek op de loer ligt. Je kunt het mysterie en de opwinding van Holmes' Londen vastleggen in dit uitdagende en informatieve spel. Jij, de speler, vergelijkt je deductieve vaardigheden met je tegenstanders en de meesterspeurder zelf, Sherlock Holmes.
In Sherlock Holmes Consulting Detective krijg je een mysterie voorgeschoteld dat je moet oplossen, en het is dan aan jou om de bewijsdraden te traceren door de zijwegen en herenhuizen van het negentiende-eeuwse Londen. Je interviewt verdachten, doorzoekt de kranten naar aanwijzingen en brengt de feiten samen om tot een oplossing te komen.
Waarom werden er twee leeuwen vermoord in Hyde Park? Wie is verantwoordelijk voor de vermiste schilderijen uit de National Gallery? Wie heeft Oswald Mason vermoord en waarom? Dit zijn slechts enkele van de gevallen die uw vindingrijkheid en deductieve vaardigheden op de proef stellen.
Dit is geen bordspel: geen dobbelstenen, geen geluk, maar een uitdaging voor je mentale vermogens. Het spel is grondig onderzocht op Holmesiaanse en Victoriaanse nauwkeurigheid om een gevoel van vervlogen tijden vast te leggen.

Serious[ly]
Format: Hardcover
This book is exactly what the title claims - a historical introduction. While although the author doesn't go into a great deal of depth, he more than makes up for it in breadth.
The author starts with an attempt at defining what exactly esotericism is. After that, the book is arranged chronologically, starting with Hellenistic esotericism and proceeding through the Renaissance, the Enlightenment and up to the present. Each chapter centers on an individual or group of individuals who were influential thinkers in their time and place. At the end of each chapter, there is a list of books for further study, much like a textbook.
It is serious; it is scholarly. It is most definitely not silly. If you are at all interested in a "Third Way", which is neither mainstream religion nor strictly empirical "scientism", this may be a gooding jumping-off point for you, as it was for me.

An amazing book that teaches a great history
Format: Kindle
This is a great book that takes the reader on an amazing journey through a part of Western history that is rarely taught.
This book teaches the other side of the development of Western religion and after reading this book I now have a knew light on previous theological education.
It is easy to understand but does not compromise on scholastic research and standards.

Probably The Best Introduction to Western Esotericism Available
Format: Hardcover
I recently completed my MA in Western Esotericism at the University of Exeter and studied under Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke. He is the Director of the Exeter Centre for the Study of Esotericism (EXESESO) at the University of Exeter. This book is structured in the same fashion as the MA program at Exeter and provides a comprehensive overview of the key topics in the field of Western esotericism. The book is chronological and begins in ancient Alexandria, through the Italian Renaissance, post-Reformation Germany and into the Age of Enlightenment. Goodrick-Clarke covers complex topics such as Hermeticism, Neo-Platonism, Alchemy, Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism and Theosophy but makes it understandable even to novice readers. The underlying theme behind the subject of Western esotericism is the continuity in the different schools of thought that can be traced though the two thousand period from ancient Alexandria to the present day. This is a subject that has been overlooked for many years due to its association with the occult and magic. Thanks to the work of Goodrick-Clarke and scholars such as Antoine Faivre and Wouter Hanegraaff it is now being given the respect it deserves. This is an excellent starting point for anyone interested in learning more.

A good overview
Format: Kindle
This book covers just about all of the key aspects and people you will find in Western mysticism. It will not give you anything new if you are already steeped in esoteric lore, but it can be a good review. Although I wish the author would have given an example or two of certain vague concepts (such as "correspondences").
I also did not care about the last chapter: It could have had a bit more critical sense concerning the supposed "scientific" evidence for New Age theories. Also, the author soberly reports equally the various theories of so many esotericists without any criticism. That is okay, but I cringe a bit when I think of the sometimes less than honest behavior of some these gurus of mysticism.

An informative survey of a neglected field
Format: Hardcover
Goodrick-Clarke provides an excellent overview of esoteric traditions in western religions, philosophies, and systems of thought. He begins in the Greco-Roman period, and ends at the modern New Age movement. In between Goodrick-Clarke takes the reader on a somewhat wild ride among diverse systems of theosophy, spiritual psychology, occult magic, metaphysical speculation, and more. For anyone unfamiliar with these trends, this book will be very informative. A wide base of material is presented in a readable and enjoyable manner.
