Hilma af Klint och August Strindberg var båda esoteriker, men vad är esoterism? Under senare delen av 1800-talet kom så kallade esoteriska strömningar att etablera sig i kulturella och intellektuella kretsar i Europa, inte minst i Sverige. Hemliga läror, riter och praktiker som alkemi, astrologi, ockultism och teosofi där tron på ett korresponderande kosmos, en levande natur och transmutationsupplevelser dominerar. Men esoterismen sträcker sig betydligt längre tillbaka i den svenska historien. Trots att de esoteriska idéströmningarna länge utpekades av kyrkan som kätteri och därför verkade i det dolda, har de haft betydande inflytande på den svenska kulturen.
I denna antologi samlar vi några av Sveriges främsta experter inom ämnet för att utforska esoterismens historia i Sverige och hur dess riter, praktiker och traditioner kom att influera författare och konstnärer som August Strindberg, Selma Lagerlöf, Viktor Rydberg, Hilma af Klint, Tyra Kleen och Carl Milles.

This Element provides an introduction to a number of less frequently explored approaches based upon the comparative study of religions. New religions convey origin myths, present their particular views of history, and craft Endtime scenarios. Their members carry out a vast and diverse array of ritual activities. They produce large corpuses of written texts and designate a subset of these as a sacrosanct canon. They focus their attention on material objects that can range from sacred buildings to objects from the natural world that are treated in ritualized fashion. The reason for this fundamental similarity between older and newer religions is briefly explored in terms of the cognitive processes that underlie religious concepts and practices. A final section returns to the issue of how such shared processes take specific shapes in the context of modern, Western societies.

During the latter part of the nineteenth century, so-called esoteric movements became increasingly popular in cultural and intellectual circles in Europe, not least in Sweden. Secret teachings, rituals and practices in alchemy, astrology, occultism and theosophy were predominant, with a belief in correspondences in the cosmos, living nature and transmutations. But esotericism goes back much further in time in Swedish history. Although such esoteric ideas were long considered heresy by the Church and thus driven underground, they have had a significant impact on Swedish culture.
In this anthology, we bring together some of Sweden s foremost experts on the subject to explore the history of esotericism in Sweden and how its rituals, practices and traditions came to influence writers and artists such as August Strindberg, Selma Lagerlöf, Viktor Rydberg, Hilma af Klint, Tyra Kleen and Carl Milles.
