À propos de l'auteur
Aleister Crowley (1875-1947), born Edward Alexander Crowley, was a controversial and influential figure in the early 20th century, renowned for his contributions to occultism, mysticism, and ceremonial magick. Crowley's life and works have garnered much attention both during his lifetime and posthumously, as he espoused a philosophy of individualism and spiritual liberation. His literary oeuvre extends across occult treatises, poetry, and personal narratives, with a distinct flair for the dramatic and the esoteric. 'The Diary of a Drug Fiend' (1922), one of his notable fictional works, encapsulates his insights into addiction and redemption, seen through the lens of his own experiences and his spiritual system known as Thelema. Crowley's writing is characterized by its elaborate symbolism, arcane language, and the deliberate challenge it poses to conventional morality. His wider corpus includes seminal texts such as 'The Book of the Law' (1904), in which he laid out the tenets of Thelemic philosophy, and 'Magick in Theory and Practice' (1929), a thorough exposition of his magical teachings. Crowley's legacy persists in the fields of contemporary occultism and alternative spirituality, where his works are often cited for their depth and complexity.
