Hermetica
Mystical wisdom that, together with the Kabbalah, formed the foundation of Western occultism. The term is derived from the surviving fragments of a multi-volume work known as the Corpus Hermeticum, or Hermetica.
Hermetica
The forty-two sacred books of wisdom allegedly written by Hermes Trismegistus or "thrice great Hermes." The books combine the mythological wisdom and attributes attributed to the Egyptian god Thoth and the Greek god Hermes.
