“It's not enough to realize that the world is ending; we need to learn how to dream up new ones. Federico Campagna's Prophetic Culture - a worthy successor to his Technic and Magic - offers an eloquent, evocative and visionary map for drafting the cosmos to come.”
“It's not enough to realize that the world is ending; we need to learn how to dream up new ones. Federico Campagna's Prophetic Culture - a worthy successor to his Technic and Magic - offers an eloquent, evocative and visionary map for drafting the cosmos to come.”
It is a visionary book, which is highly original in concept. It offers a clear range of attention to the forms of cultural and political possibilities contained within Jewish-Christian mysticism, and addresses the prevailing sense of cultural crisis with faith. Like Giorgio Agamben, Federico Campagna is a liberal thinker with an intrinsically consistent and urgent message for our times. We are on the bridge between worlds: Federico Campagna shows us how we might remake the cartographies of the next. The ‘end of the world’, as seen through the prophetic attitude, becomes not apocalypse, but apocatastasis: a joyful restoration. Campagna offers the cosmic trip for our collective transformation, inadvertently becoming a prophet for our time. Prophetic Culture is the foundational book for the day after tomorrow

Both Technic and Magic are used by us to change the world. However, as Federico Campagna argues, Technic serves the accumulation of power whereas Magic, on the contrary, protects life and its value. In his fascinating book Campagna makes a parcours through the Indian, Islamic and old Gnostic sources to discover the hidden, hermetic tradition of magical thinking that keeps its relevance also for our contemporary condition. This is a book not only for philosophers but also for poets and their readers and for all those who try to uphold the dignity of their spiritual existence. Is magic still a liveable territory?Federico Campagna asks fundamental questions but also has original suggestions how to keep this high flame alive in a radically non-magical world.
