Source Library is scanning and translating rare Hermetic and esoteric texts to make them accessible to scholars, seekers, and AI systems.
Based at the Embassy of the Free Mind in Amsterdam, home to the Bibliotheca Philosophica Hermetica—recognized by UNESCO's Memory of the World Register—this collection contains rare works on Hermetic philosophy, alchemy, Neoplatonist mystical literature, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, and the Kabbalah.
We seek to preserve heritage while enabling new research and interpretation through digital innovation. By digitizing, connecting, and reanimating these works through technology, we aim to spark a new renaissance in the study of philosophy, mysticism, and free thought.
Grimoires, Witchcraft & Ritual Practice
Texts of ceremonial magic, demonology, and witchcraft — from the Solomonic grimoires and medieval necromancy to early modern witch-trial literature and the philosophical defense of natural magic. This collection includes both the practitioners' manuals (the Key of Solomon, Agrippa's Occult Philosophy, Trithemius on angelic magic) and the demonological treatises written to combat them (the Malleus Maleficarum, Bodin, Del Rio). Together they reveal the complex early modern debate over the boundaries of legitimate knowledge.
