Hardcover. First Edition. First Edition. Hardcover. Images and Oracles of Austin Osman Spare by Kenneth Grant is without a doubt one of the most important works on Spare ever published. Excerpts from Spare's Zoetic Grimoire, a biographical essay, a thesis on the magical systems of Zos and many rare illustrations of manuscripts and pictures go to make this work essential reading for all those interested in AOS. Austin Osman Spare (1886-1956) is one of the most influential and innovative figures in twentieth century occultism. A natural artist and psychic, Spare's explorations of the creative focus gave rise to an ontology and body of work that departs radically from conventional occultism, both then and now. Ahead of his time, he was dismissed by Crowley early in his career, but found appreciation and understanding with the next generation, who embraced his ideas with alacrity. Kenneth Grant (1924-2011) was the head of several important Thelemic orders and author of the influential "Typhonian Trilogies" series (1972-2002) that includes The Magical Revival, Nightside of Eden and Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God.
