Publisher's Synopsis
"This original book by Lazare Lenain is the source of many later books about the Shemhamephorash used by several Western esoteric currents, in particular the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn and Martinism. Published in 1823, it provided an early guide to the 72 Angels or Geniuses at a time when the Age of Enlightenment was carrying the torch of science and rationality. Reprinted by Papus, who wrote a Preface on behalf of the Ordre Kabbalistique de la Rose-Croix, it was reintroduced to the Western esoteric current. This current edition is the first translated into English, and contains a number of important Appendices, including several forms of angelic sigils and seals"--.
