By popular vote, after the current translation for subscribers is finished (not far away!), I will be publishing on a monthly basis English translations of chapters from Franz Dornseiff's Das Alphabet in Mystik und Magie (1922) [The Alphabet in Mysticism and Magic - based on his 1916 PhD thesis on Buchstabenmystik, i.e. Letter Mysticism].

I won't be publishing the footnotes or cleaning up the inline references as I would do for print publication - simply because it is exhausting work and I would rather leave that to when I am ready to get it together for print publication. There is also a lot of Ancient Greek and Hebrew characters which I may have got wrong on these drafts (especially the various accents etc on the Greek) - again this is something which I would look to clean up before print publication. Note also that the translations of Greek/Latin/etc. (I always include the original text in these cases) are a lot rougher than the translations of the German.

Although I have already got 7 1/2 posts lined up for publishing, I have decided to release them monthly (on the 1st of the month) as they are a lot of work and I want to have the lee way to not fall behind in posting. I will also leave them up for subscribers to read this time (remember to log in to see them once they are up!) 

First post will be 1st April 2024.
