Description: In the early 13th century, with the Cathars destroyed, there were two most celebrated forms of knowledge: hermeticism, which remained primarily Grego-Egyptian, and kaballah, a Hebraic gnosis. The Tarot appeared as a graphical gnosis that synthesized the two to form a body of knowledge that incorporated the occult wisdom of Antiquity. El gran libro del Tarot explores this history and the symbolic evolution of the arcana.
