Treatise on the Reintegration of Beings. Editorial Reviews Language Notes Text: Gerard Encausse was one of the great occultists of France, and was instrumental in developing and popularizing Eliphas Levi's earlier suggestions of a link between the Hebrew alphabet and the twenty-two trumps of the tarot. The Qabalah, first published in , is particularly valuable because, along with his original theoretical explorations of the Qabalah, it also contains his complete translation of the Sepher Yetzirah, Eliphas Levi's famous Ten Lessons on the Qabalah, Rabbi Drach's important and rare treatise, The Qabalah of the Hebrews, and an extensive Qabalistic bibliography.
The material on the Shem ha Mephorash angels alone is worth the price of the book. Liviu rated it liked it Aug 31, Elena Cristina rated it it was amazing Feb 11, You could easily read that whole section and not have any idea what you read except to know that the worthy Qabalist is somebody advanced in years, with knowledge in all manner of subjects, and who posesses "absolute purity". Papus writes brilliantly for his chosen audience:

This book is great! It is one of the few books on the Hermetic Qabalah that is out there. Sure you can find tons of books on Kabbalah but it is very hard to find books on Esoteric Qabalah, which is a completely different thing all together. Papus is a very inportant author in the study of Occultism. Papus was in close contact with Eliphas Levi and many other very interesting french occultists of his day.
I highly suggest all of his works, especially this book "The Qabalah" and "The Tarot of the Bohemians", Classics in their own right. Papus writes brilliantly for his chosen audience: What seems to be missing, in my opinion, is any sort of practical use for this information.
He does a so-so job of summarizing the basic principles of the Qabalah talking about the esoteric and exoteric aspects, discussing basic philosophical issues , but it seems to be a lot of gentleman lecturing without anything of true value to be gained. If one wants to learn about the Kabbalah, it is difficult to go wrong with Rabbi Aryeh Kaplan. The Kabbalah is, after all, so strongly located within the Jewish tradition that to extricate it seems to destroy much of the system.
Rabbi Kaplan was an intellectual, a scholar, and an actual practicing Kabbalist. You might wonder why the author calls the Qabalah the "secret tradition of the west" when he seems to believe it originated with Abraham, Moses, or the Egyptians. Papus includes huge quotes from other occultists, most notably Eliphas Levi. Levi gives high praise to the Catholic religion and encourages initiates to continue practicing the religion they were born into. Of course, he also says that Osiris and Jesus represent the same thing.
