Book Description
This new reading rackles the numerous riddles in the poem, proposing six keys of interpretation, clarifying questions of textual arrangement, thematic recurrence, syncretism, myth, allegory, and allusion. Because nothing in the lines is self-evident, the author chose for ample annotation and commentary with a biographical key to reveal the ultimate unity of the hermetic fragments.
