Publisher's Synopsis
Pythagoras and the Delphic Mysteries, was written by French philosopher, poet, playwright, novelist, and music critic Édouard Schuré as translated by Fred Rothwell, and was first published in English in 1906. This work is a short biography of Pythagoras and Delphian Mysteries, written from the Theosophical and esoteric perspective of Édouard Schuré. The work serves as a brief, readable introduction to the philosopher, mathematician and initiatic mysteries, but also to his thought and times, through which a distinct lens of modern esoteric interpretation illuminates his place within the history of ideas.
