For those interested in the early modern mind (and the late Hermetic mind...), further reading might include Yates's *The Art of Memory*, a truly paradigm-shattering study when it appeared that has since become foundational; Grafton's book on Girolamo Cardano, *Cardano's Cosmos* (read it thinking that Cardano might have been the first modern consultant); and John Crowley's novel quartet Aegypt, or, The Solitudes (Aegypt/The Solitudes, Love & Sleep, Daemonomania, and Endless Things).

Anyone find a kindle copy of the hermeneutics book?

Also perhaps one could offer a pop pan history of the psyche from the dawn of the bicameral mind to today

I don’t think it exists. Somebody posted an audio file in the chat though
