A collection of short philosophical treatises, it was written in Greek between the first and third centuries C.E. and translated into Latin during the Renaissance by the great scholar and philosopher Marsilio Ficino. These treatises were central to the spiritual work of hermetic societies in Late Antique Alexandria (200-700 C.E.) and aimed to awaken gnosis, the direct realization of the unity of the individual and the Supreme. In addition to this new translation of The Corpus Hermeticum , which seeks to reflect the inspirational intent of the original, The Way of Hermes includes the first English translation of the recently rediscovered manuscript of The Definitions of Hermes Trismegistus to Asclepius, a collection of aphorisms used by the hermetic student to strengthen the mind during meditation. With the proper mental orientation, a state of pure perception can be achieved in which the true face of God appears. This document is of enormous value to the contemporary student of gnostic studies for its insights into the actual workings of this spiritual path. Review: One of my favourites! - I can’t stress enough how good this book is. I’ve had a rather profound awakening in my life of late and one of the things that came out of it was a pull towards hermeticism. As a result I ordered several books on the subject that were recommended during a YouTube presentation. I hadn’t planned on starting with this one, but it arrived first and wasn’t too big so I was like, “what the heck, I’ll just start here”. So glad I did. Honestly one of the best books I have ever read. It meshes perfectly with my awakened experience and I feel very honoured to have received it. It’s a beautiful translation! Unless someone is dogmatically married to a separate belief system making them overly critical and closed minded, I could not fathom anyone not appreciating this work. Review: Excellent - The book is excellent. The vendor is very trustworthy ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #682,486 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #302 in Metaphysics (Books) #2,469 in Mysticism (Books) #4,065 in Occult & Paranormal | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 327 Reviews | ## Images ![Way of Hermes: New Translations of The Corpus Hermeticum and The Definitions of Hermes Trismegistus to Asclepius - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81oPMsmNKKL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my favourites! *by S***Y on 5 February 2024* I can’t stress enough how good this book is.

The vendor is very trustworthy ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent and readable translation. *by A***M on 26 August 2021* Probably my favorite translation to just sit and read. Other versions translate the word "Nous" as Mind, but it is so much more. Leaving it as Nous adds an extra element to the text in my eyes. Excellent work. ## Frequently Bought Together - The Way of Hermes: New Translations of The Corpus Hermeticum and The Definitions of Hermes Trismegistus to Asclepius - Asclepius: The Perfect Discourse of Hermes Trismegistus - Hermetica: The Greek Corpus Hermeticum and the Latin Asclepius in a New English Translation, with Notes and Introduction --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sn/products/281213762-way-of-hermes-new-translations-of-the-corpus-hermeticum-definitions](https://www.desertcart.sn/products/281213762-way-of-hermes-new-translations-of-the-corpus-hermeticum-definitions) --- *Product available on Desertcart Senegal* *Store origin: SN* *Last updated: 2026-09-15*
