Summary

The 'Lesser Key of Solomon', an assemblage of texts pivotal to the western esoteric tradition, delves deep into the realms of ceremonial magic and demonology. This anthology, featuring contributions from luminaries such as Aleister Crowley and S.L. MacGregor Mathers, spans a fascinating array of philosophical and theurgical thought, woven through with the complex tapestry of Hermetic and Kabbalistic wisdom. The collection is seminal, reflecting the rigorous intellectual and spiritual disciplines of its contributors, and it stands out not only for its historical significance but also for its stylistic diversity and depth, exploring themes from the arcane to the existential. The contributing editors, Crowley and Mathers, were monumental figures in the late 19th and early 20th centuries' occult revival, each bringing their unique mystic and scholarly backgrounds to the work. Their contributions manifest a profound engagement with the mystical traditions of the past, alongside a daring exploration of new magical frontiers. The anthology encapsulates a critical period in the evolution of Western esotericism, bearing witness to a vibrant dialogue between tradition and innovation, deeply embedded within the cultural and historical milieu of its time. For those intrigued by the mystical and the metaphysical, 'The Lesser Key of Solomon' provides an unparalleled opportunity to explore a confluence of intellectual and spiritual currents. This collection is not merely academic; it is an invitation to witness the esoteric dialogues that have shaped mystical thought across generations. Readers will find this anthology a profound resource—educational, enlightening, and endlessly fascinating, offering insights not just into a literary tradition, but into the very fabric of the mystical worldviews that continue to influence contemporary spiritual practices.

    Mary Gladys Meredith was born on 25th March 1881 at Leighton Lodge in the village of Leighton, near Shrewsbury in Shropshire.  
Mary was home-schooled by her father before being sent to a finishing school in Southport in 1895. Her longs walks in the countryside helped her develop a heightened sense of observation and description, of both people and places, which later infused both her poetry and prose. 
When she was 20 she developed symptoms of Graves' disease, a thyroid disorder that caused bulging protuberant eyes and throat goitre. This caused life-long ill health and was a possible contributor to her early death.  
Mary was first published as a teenager when her brother sent to a local newspaper her poem on a recent rail accident.  Mary, who was in the habit of destroying her work was appalled though placated when she discovered that it had received some positive appreciation in readers letters. 
1912 brought marriage to Henry Bertram Law Webb, a teacher. He supported her literary work which, in 1917, resulted in the publication of her novel ‘The Golden Arrow.’ 
A few years later they acquired a property in London where, it was hoped, recognition of her literary talents would be more easily recognised.   
Her 1924 novel, ‘Precious Bane’, won the Prix Femina Vie Heureuse, the prestigious French literary prize awarded by an all-female jury. 
Most of her poetry and various other works were only published after her death. 
By 1927 her health was deteriorating and her marriage failing.   
Mary Webb died on 8th October 1927 at St Leonards-on-Sea, East Sussex.  She was 46.
