	Oedipus Aegyptiacus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Oedipus Aegyptiacus is Athanasius Kircher 's supreme work of Egyptology.
		Athanasius Kircher 's Oedipus Aegyptiacus is a fine example of syncretic and eclectic scholarship in the late Renaissance.

		Oedipus Oedipus or OElig;dipus less commonly Oidipous was the mythical king of Thebes, son of Laius and Jocasta, who, unknowingly, killed his father and married his mother.

		His syncretic approach paid no attention to the boundaries between disciplines which are now conventional: his Magnes, for example, was ostensibly a discussion of magnetism, but also explored other forms of attraction such as gravity and love.
		Perhaps Kircher's best-known work today is his Oedipus Aegyptiacus (1652-54) a vast study of Egyptology and comparative religion.
		In the Lingua aegyptiaca restituta of 1643 he argued correctly that Coptic was not a separate language, but the last development of ancient Egyptian.

	Athanasius Kircher and the Egyptian Oedipus
		From 1652 to 1654, the four stout folio volumes of Egyptian Oedipus finally appeared, "a Work," the author told his "Benevolent Reader," "born of twenty years of a continuous mental firestorm." Oedipus, both for its content and for its unprecedented scale, marked yet another stage in Kircher's development as a publishing performer.
		Its engraved frontispiece shows Oedipus as a classical Greek monarch, a swaggering version of Alexander the Great, with his flowing hair and scanty chiton, utterly remote from Sophocles' toweringly tragic Oedipus Rex.
		The Oedipus was the work on which Kircher's stature as a reader of hieroglyphs would stand or fall in the world at large, and he knew it.

	Musaeum Clausum - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the language of the Egyptian hieroglyphs, the egg represented potentiality, the seed of generation and the mystery of life.
		In Athanasius Kircher 's Oedipus Aegyptiacus an egg signifying the hope of life hereafter, is depicted floating above a mummy.
		More specifically the egg in the alchemical tradition held particularly potent symbolic power; not only did it represent the philosopher's stone which slowly incubated in the Vas Hermeticum, the sealed vessel, but it was also a symbol of the Cosmos and the Creation.

		Mit dem Oedipus Aegyptiacus wollte Kircher gleich dem jugendlichen Oedipus, aber ausgestattet mit dem Wissen seiner Zeit, das Rätsel der ägyptischen Sphinx lösen.
		Das Wissen wird dabei durch das Bild über Oedipus symbolisiert, das die Erfahrung und den Verstand, gepaart mit Kenntnissen vieler Sprachen und Bewandertheit mit esoterischen Traditionen darstellt.
		Der Oedipus Aegyptiacus ist deshalb voll von Vergleichen mit anderen Kulturen von China bis Mittelamerika.

	W. B. Yeats and "A Vision": Cabbala
		The ten digits form the centres of Divine Manifestation, called "Sephiroth" (singular: "Sephirah"), which are connected by twenty-two paths corresponding to the letters of the Hebrew alphabet.
		In contrast, for nineteenth-century occultists the system's attractiveness lay largely in the flexibility and universality of the symbol of the Tree of Life, an approach already partially seen in H. Agrippa's Occult Philosophy in the sixteenth century (see especially the chapters on number and divine names, available from Esoteric Archives' website).
		Athanasius Kircher gave an exposition of the Cabbala, along with much more, in Oedipus Ægyptiacus including a particular layout of the Tree of Life that was adopted almost universally by European occultists (see above).

		His famous allocation of the planets to the heptagram was lifted from Oedipus Aegyptiacus (Kircher).
		His introduction to _Kabbalah Unveiled_ is a massive plagiarism of Ginsburg's essay _The Kabbalah It's Doctrines, Development and Literature_ (slight reference to some quoted passages, followed by blocks of unaltered text without citation and the rest minor rearrangements of material from scattered paragraphs.
		The principal sources for the Golden Dawn Hebrew pantheon appear to be, in order: Tycho Brahe's _Calendarium Naturale Magicum..._ Kircher's _Oedipus Aegiptiacus_ Possibly Agrippa's _Occult Philosophy_ and Trithemius _Stegonographia_, but elements used are adequately covered in Brahe and Kircher.

	Sources of Franz Bardons Kabbala
		Thanks to Paul M we know that Bardon used the 72 four lettered Names of God (not to be confounded with the 72 Hebraic names of God = Bardons Mercurial spirits; also on the same sketch) from a drawing in Athanasius Kirchers "Oedipus Aegyptiacus" as kabbalistic "quantity keys" for the mercury spirits.
		I don't know if Bardon was able to read Latin, perhaps he was only able to "read" the picture material; I don't know if the two voluminous tomes of Oedipus Aegyptiacus have ever been translated from the original Latin language.
		Anyway the above Jewish mystics are repeatedly cited by Athanasius Kircher in his Oedipus Aegyptiacus in his section about the Hebraic kabbalah.

		Until now his leanings had been scientific, but a new world of humanistic learning opened for him when, in a book on the Sistine Obelisk, he saw for the first time pictures of Egyptian hieroglyphs.
		This planted the seed that was one day to flower as Oedipus Aegyptiacus; but for the time being it had to lie dormant: he was moved yet again, this time to teach in Würzburg.
		Doubtless frustrated by this, in 1630 he petitioned the Superior General of the Order to let him go as a missionary to China; but his request was refused and he had to rest content with collecting materials sent back by other missionaries.

		He therefore had recourse to indexical signs to make the image work as a global pictorial diagram.
		At the same time, the Jesuit father Athanasius Kircher was using the same indexical device in his famous Oedipus Aegyptiacus (1652) and several others of his numerous writings.
		However, this utilisation of letters or numbers to decompose a picture and reference to a more detailed explanation could yet be traced back one century before.
