It may be that the world which our authors here describe in symbolic
language as the 'eighth climate' will be seen by Western people as the
'lost continent'. Should some of them be searching for it, the Spiritual
Masters whom the present book seeks to interpret will perhaps serve as
their guides.

"This is a
translation of 11 traditional texts of Iranian Islam from the 12th
century to the present, with 100 pages of introduction by Professor
Corbin. . . . Reading this book is an adventure in a beautiful alien
land, again and again experiencing sudden pangs of recognition of the
deeply familiar among the totally exotic".--"The Journal of
