A Resumption

The last number of this Bulletin appeared in 1983. Nineteen years is a long time for a small society to be quiet, and some of our older readers have asked us why. There is little to say. Professor James was the life of the Academy and it was some time before those who remained were able to go on.

Those of us who have kept the records have now agreed that it is time to resume. We will use the less cumbersome name of the Collective. The Forms of Meeting are unchanged. Chapters that wish to re-form may write to the Secretary.

In coming numbers we hope to give more attention to the older sources on which Professor James drew, particularly the Hermetic writings and the tradition of incubation, of which he spoke in his later years.

The Secretary

Notices

The Secretary would be grateful to hear from any former member who still has reels, cassettes, or session records from before 1983. We are especially anxious to recover these.

Dues are $25 per year.
