Synopsis "The Cloud upon the Sanctuary: By Karl von Kckartshausen"

Apart from "The Cloud upon the Sanctuary," Eckartshausen is a name only to the Christian Transcendentalists of England. He wrote much, and at his period and in his place, he exercised some considerable influence; but his other works are practically unknown among us, while in Germany the majority at least seem forgotten, even among the special class to which some of them might be assumed to appeal. "The Cloud upon the Sanctuary" has, I believe, always remained in the memory of a few, and is destined still to survive, for it carries with it a message of very deep significance to all those who look beneath the body of religious doctrine for the one principle of life which energizes the whole organism. This translation has offered it for the first time to English readers, and it enters here upon the third phase of its existence. A.E. Waite

Arthur Edward Waite (October 2, 1867 - May 19, 1942) is considered one of the greatest scholars and experts in occultism and esotericism of recent times. He belonged to various secret orders, such as Freemasonry, the Rosicrucian Order, and the Golden Dawn, and was noted for his deep knowledge of the Kabbalah and Western mystical traditions.

Although he wrote numerous works, his most famous legacy was the creation of the Tarot deck that bears his name, a contribution that consecrated him worldwide.
