The fourth volume in The Library of Esoterica explores the historic roots of plants in myth, religion, and magickal practices. Through essays, interviews, and more than 400 images--from ancient Egyptian stonework to 18th-century botanical illustrations--Plant Magick chronicles the beautifully symbiotic relationship between plants and people. About the series The Library of Esoterica explores how centuries of artists have given form to mysticism, translating the arcane and the obscure into enduring, visionary works of art. Each subject is showcased through both modern and archival imagery culled from private collectors, libraries, and museums around the globe. The result forms an inclusive visual history, a study of our primal pull to dream and nightmare, and the creative ways we strive to connect to the divine.
