Table of ContentsReviewsWilliam Lethaby, Symbolism, and the Occult is a unique work and an important achievement. Thoroughly researched and as readable as it is significant, Mann carefully shows why Lethaby deserves considerably more scholarly attention than he has so far received. The compelling discussions of his understanding of symbolism, magic, and alchemy, which have been largely overlooked, are particularly important. Hence, while most readers with an interest in art and architecture will find this book informative, lucid, and engaging, anyone with a serious interest in the modern history of the occult cannot afford to ignore it.
