""Problems of Mysticism and Its Symbolism"" is a book written by Herbert Silberer, a prominent Austrian psychoanalyst and philosopher. The book is a comprehensive study of the symbolism used in mysticism, particularly in the context of religious and spiritual practices. Silberer explores the concept of mysticism and its various forms, including Christian mysticism, Hindu mysticism, and Sufism. He discusses the symbolism used in these practices, such as the use of light and darkness, the symbol of the cross, and the use of numbers and colors. The book also delves into the psychological aspects of mysticism and the role that symbolism plays in the human psyche. Silberer argues that the use of symbolism in mysticism is a way of expressing the unconscious mind and that it can be used as a tool for self-discovery and personal growth. Overall, ""Problems of Mysticism and Its Symbolism"" is a thought-provoking and insightful exploration of the role of symbolism in mysticism and its impact on the human psyche. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the study of mysticism, psychology, and philosophy.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1917 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

May 1992. In Russia, Boris Yeltsin is showing millions of communists the spectre of capitalism. Yugoslavia is disintegrating. United Germany is uncertain about their next move, and communism is collapsing all around. And in a corner of old Calcutta, Herbert Sarkar, sole proprietor of a company that delivers messages from the dead, decides to give up the ghost. Decides to give up his aunt and uncle, his friends and foes, his fondness for kites, his aching heart that broke for Buki, his top terrace from where he stared up at the sky, his Ulster overcoat with buttons like big black medals, his notebook full of poems, his Park Street every evening when the sun goes down, his memory of a Russian girl running across the great black earth as the soldiers lift their guns and get ready to fire, his fairy who beat her wings against his window and filled his room with blue light . . .Now in a new translation, Herbert, the beloved cult favourite by Nabarun Bhattacharya, and winner of the 1997 Sahitya Akademi Award, is a 'scathingly satiric, wildly energetic, and yet depply tender' portrayal of a doomed young man and a city struggling to resist forces that, alas, prove to be entirely beyond their control.Praise for Herbert'This first U.S. publication brings off a remarkable resurrection, one that erupts full-blooded, alive with laughter, stink and rage.'- John Domini, Washington Post'Swift and strange, [Herbert] tells the story of its titular character, an orphan whose life is characterized by loss and longing: a sweeping view of the richness and the turmoil of Bengali culture, literature, and politics in the twentieth century.'- New Yorker'[Sunandini] Banerjee's acrobatic translation is both enormously fun and true to the radical content. The writing disrupts the hegemony of the English language from the inside by celebrating the multilingualism possible within it.'- Asymptote'Nimble and vivid, Bhattacharya's slippery narrative slithers forward and sideways through time: an acute, idiosyncratic reading experience.' - Publishers Weekly'What is needed [now] is a kind of novel that attends to how society is being organized by certain vested interests; a novel that goes to the heart-rather, goes for the jugular-of the economic system itself. [Herbert] is prophetic of this tradition to come.'- Ratik Asokan, 4Columns'[Herbert] reads like Rainer Maria Rilke's Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge set in Calcutta. Featuring a young man with an open channel to the dead who drinks and grieves to excess, it is a mosaic of manic and immersive episodes. It is a spinning drunken stumble through a city that feels menacingly sensual.'- Nate McNamara, LitHub
