The Magic of Books  Monthly lecture series with William Kiesel Presented by PRS and Ouroboros Press In the PRS LIBRARY! Lecture Two: Unfolding Secrets: Folding Plates in Esoteric Texts Q&A to follow the lecture Lecture Series Overview “Without books, there is no memory, and without memory, a culture cannot exist.” - Fernando Báez Join William Kiesel for a series of engaging talks on books and book culture surrounding the wisdom traditions housed in the PRS Library. Books are vessels of coagulated thought, distilled and filtered through the minds of authors, artists and adepts. Understanding the technology of the book and the laboratory of the library grants the seeker access to the esoteric secrets that can aid them on their journey of discovery. Presented in the peaceful environs of the PRS Library, William uses some of the bibilographic treasures of the library to illustrate multi-disciplined topics aimed at bringing deeper awareness into these important literary tools which have preserved the ageless wisdom for centuries. April 10 Unfolding Secrets: Folding Plates in Esoteric Texts Study in the esoteric world requires the consideration of many things, some quite abstract or complex. Folding plates are a tool, often missing from contemporary texts, that allow for the expression of concepts and explanations that text alone may not convey clearly. The old proverb, 'an image is worth a thousand words,' expresses this somewhat but folding plates may also show us charts, lineages and other data in organized, artful and surprising ways. In addition to presenting the folding plates in Manly P. Hall's The Secret Teachings of All Ages, the talk will also feature other examples which provide the context of these important educational tools of esoteric print culture. About William Kiesel William Kiesel has walked the path of esotericism for over 30 years. His practical experience and historical knowledge of occult literature and culture draws from such diverse disciplines as Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, Qabalah, Thelema, Alchemy, Rosicrucianism, Theosophy, and Ceremonial Magic. With his decades as an antiquarian bookseller, his training in letterpress printing and bookbinding, Kiesel brings his love of books and scholarship together as publisher at Ouroboros Press. He is also faculty at 22 Teachings School of Hermetic Science and Magical Arts. www.bookarts.org Ticket Price: $22 (In Person Only) Please email events@prs.org or phone 323-663-2167 with any questions.
