Representaion In Pursuance Of Books Lucifer's Court: A Heretic's Journey in Search of the Light Bringers
Rahn’s personal diary from his travels as occult investigator for the Third Reich• First English translation of the author’s journeys in search of a Nordic equivalent to Mt. Sinai
• Explains why Lucifer the Light Bringer, god of the heretics, is a positive figure
Otto Rahn’s lifelong search for the Grail brought him to the attention of the SS leader Himmler, who shared his esoteric interests. Induced by Himmler to become the chief investigator of the occult for the Nazis, Rahn traveled throughout Europe--from Spain to Iceland--in the mid 1930s pursuing leads to the Grail and other mysteries. Lucifer’s Court is the travel diary he kept while searching for “the ghosts of the pagans and heretics who were [his] ancestors.” It was during this time that Rahn grasped the positive role Lucifer plays in these forbidden religions as the bearer of true illumination, similar to Apollo and other sun gods in pagan worship.
This journey was also one of self-discovery for Rahn. He found such a faithful echo of his own innermost beliefs in the lives of the heretics of the past that he eventually called himself a Cathar and nurtured ambitions of restoring that faith, which had been cruelly destroyed in the fires of the Inquisition. His journeys on assignment for the Reich--including researching an alleged entrance to Hollow Earth in Iceland and searching for the true mission of Lucifer in the caves of southern France that served as refuge for the Cathars during the Inquisition--also led to his disenchantment with his employers and his mysterious death in the mountains after his break with the Nazis.

One of the most beautiful and inspiring, poetic books I have read in a long time.1936, un gran año para buscar el grial por los pirineos.
This book (being a translated and reworked diary, stated by the author), is a product of its time. Is it a mystical personal revelation or the ramblings of a thinly veiled opponent of anything smacking of the Middle East? The only thing that is certain, is that Otto Rahn saw himself as a heretic.
Son de esos pocos libros, que con el paso de cada capítulo te hace reflexionar, tener otra perspectiva del mundo y, te da el poder de entender que ciertas cosas y/o entidades no son lo que parecen. Reflexiono.
We are a people of Nordic blood who call ourselves Cathars, just as an Oriental people of Nordic blood call themselves Farsi 'pure ones'. You can understand me, or is your blood also impure?
Esse homem é extraordinário, em termos de Raiders of the Lost Ark, ele é a união de Indiana, Beloq e Toth, soma-se a isso The Last Crusade, tudo ao mesmo tempo. Suicídio na Áustria? Uma pinóia. Rá!
