Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Large octavo with dark blue cloth boards and dark blue endpapers; xiv, 450 pages: illustrations; index; bibliography; 24 cm. Translated from the French"Georges Ivanovich Gurdjieff: Textes recuillis par Bruno de Panafieu", 1992. "The influence of George Ivanovitch Gurdjieff (1866-1949) has been felt in many fields and disciplines, from religion, psychology, and philosophy to literature, music, dance, and the performing arts. But Gurdjieff's fundamental place in Western cultural history is that of a teacher -- not only a "teacher of dancing", as he referred to himself in the introduction to one of his books, but a spiritual master. [.] The present volume presents a wide variety of new studies and accounts of Gurdjieff by pupils of his teaching and by representatives of science, humanities, and the arts. Taken together, this collection is as much a testimony to the higher possibilities of human life as it as a series of appreciation of a remarkable man and his teaching." --Jacket copy. Near fine in near fine jacket; slightest rubbing to edges; now in archival mylar. First Edition (presumed; no prior editions or printings cited). Seller Inventory # 104241
