Synopsis

Meiji Restoration explores Japan's remarkable transformation from a feudal society to a modern global power during the Meiji period (1868-1912). This pivotal era witnessed rapid modernization across all sectors. One key aspect was the strategic dismantling of the old feudal system, which paved the way for a centralized government capable of enacting sweeping reforms. Simultaneously, Japan embraced the Industrial Revolution, adopting Western technologies to rapidly build its economic and military strength. The book examines how Japan navigated the challenges of Western influence while striving to maintain its cultural identity. It highlights the agency and strategic thinking of Japanese leaders who recognized the urgent need for modernization to avoid colonization. The narrative progresses by first establishing the political and social conditions of Tokugawa Japan, and then delves into the establishment of the Meiji government. Later chapters detail industrialization, military restructuring, and cultural shifts, culminating in Japan's emergence as a global force, thus challenging simple narratives of Western imposition.

    In this third and final book of The Magus, Francis Barrett turns from magical practice to magical history—presenting a rare and invaluable compendium of the great minds who shaped Western occult philosophy. 
    Book III offers concise biographical accounts of dozens of ancient, medieval, and Renaissance adepts, including Zoroaster, Hermes Trismegistus, Pythagoras, Paracelsus, Roger Bacon, Agrippa, and more. These are the sages, mystics, alchemists, astrologers, and magicians whose teachings laid the foundation for everything in The Magus. 
    Far more than a bibliography, this is a spiritual lineage—a transmission of ideas and inspiration across generations. By exploring the lives and writings of these visionaries, Barrett reveals the continuity of esoteric wisdom through the centuries and situates his own work within a long tradition of initiates and seekers. 
    Whether you're a student of occult history or a practitioner of the arts, Book III offers insight into the intellectual and spiritual giants upon whose shoulders modern magic stands. Their philosophies echo across time—and this volume preserves their legacy.

    The ancient Greeks have long been considered the forefathers of modern Western Civilization, but the Golden Age of Athens and the spread of Greek influence across much of the known world only occurred due to one of the most crucial battles of antiquity: the Battle of Marathon. In 491 B.C., following a successful invasion of Thrace over the Hellespont, the Persian emperor Darius sent envoys to the main Greek city-states, including Sparta and Athens, demanding tokens of earth and water as symbols of submission, but Darius didn’t exactly get the reply he sought. 
    	The Peloponnesian War, as the great historian Thucydides wrote in the introduction to his eponymous book, which has become one of the greatest historical treatises of antiquity, was an event of such calamitous magnitude that Greece had never witnessed its like in all of recorded history. Not the Trojan War, not the Dorian Invasion, not even the recent Persian invasions – which had devastated mainland Greece and seen Athens herself evacuated and put to the flame, the buildings on her Acropolis razed into dust – could compare to the scale of the devastation that engulfed all of Greece for almost three decades, causing the deaths of tens, perhaps hundreds of thousands.  
    	Entire populations were displaced, whole cities destroyed, and mountainous sums of money spent, all in order for Greece’s two most famous city-states to establish who had dominion over Greece. Sparta, whose invincible armies had recently led the Greeks to victory against Xerxes’s hordes at Plataea was at the head of the Peloponnesian League. Their opponents were led by proud Athens, possessor of a fleet that virtually dominated the entire Mediterranean and decimated the Persian navy at Salamis and Mycale, at the head of the Delian League. Sparta was insular and old-fashioned, while Athens was dynamic and democratic, but both were bent on imperialistic expansion.
