Description
It may be that the world which our authors here describe in symbolic language as the "eighth climate" will be seen by Western people as the "lost continent". Should some of them be searching for it, the Spiritual Masters whom the present book seeks to interpret will perhaps serve as their guides.
Reviews
"[O]ne of the most important and ground-breaking works of Corbin whose original French version ... revealed a whole domain and 'climate' of the spiritual universe of the Persian sages and mystics."--Seyyed Hossein Nasr, Religious Studies
