ESOTERICA | Reuchlin and the Wonder-Working Word - The Kabbalistic Reformation of Medieval Magic through יה(ש)וה @TheEsotericaChannel | Uploaded September 2022 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
Like many fields, the theory and practice of Magic underwent radical renovation and transformation during the 15th century Renaissance. Ficino's translations of Hermetic and Platonic texts along with Pico's infusion of Kabbalah into magic would create new vistas in the European world of magic. Reuchlin would not only transmit these ideas across the Alps to inform Agrippa and Dee, but his own works would further push this Kabbalistic-Magical reformation. In this episode - as part of a collaboration with @TheModernHermeticist - I'll be covering his important, but still untranslated, 1492 De Verbo Mirifico (The Wonder-Working Word) where Reuchlin argues that all of magic can be reformed by returning to primaeval words of power. Further, that a new power, miracle-making word יה(ש)וה has the power to transform all of magic, philosophy and magic!
