520 8  Annotation|bThe author presents with this intellectual 
       biography of the Lutheran alchemist Count Michael Maier an
       academic study of western esotericism in general and to 
       the study of alchemy and rosicrucianism in particular. The
       author charts the development of Maier's Hermetic 
       worldview in the context of his service at the courts of 
       Emperor Rudolf II and Moritz of Hessen-Kassel. The problem
       of the nature of early Rosicrucianism is addressed in 
       detail with reference to Maier's role in the promotion of 
       this "serious jest" in the years immediately prior to the 
       outbreak of the Thirty Years' War. The work is set in the 
       context of ongoing debates concerning the nature of early 
       modern alchemy and its role in the history of Western 
       esotericism.
