Synopsis "The Collected Poems of Arthur Edward Waite Vol. II."

This early work by Arthur Edward Waite was originally published in 1911 and we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography. 'The Collected Poems of Arthur Edward Waite Vol. II.' is a the second volume of a two volume work of collected poems. Arthur Edward Waite was born on the 2nd of October, 1857 in America. After the death of his father, Waite and his mother returned to her native England, where he was raised in North London, attending St. Charles' College from the age of thirteen. Waite left school to become a clerk, but also wrote verse in his spare time. The death of his sister, Frederika Waite, in 1874 soon attracted him into psychical research. Waite became a prolific author with many of his works being well received in academic circles. He wrote occult texts on subjects including divination, esotericism, Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry and ceremonial magic, Kabbalism, and alchemy.

Arthur Edward Waite (October 2, 1867 - May 19, 1942) is considered one of the greatest scholars and experts in occultism and esotericism of recent times. He belonged to various secret orders, such as Freemasonry, the Rosicrucian Order, and the Golden Dawn, and was noted for his deep knowledge of the Kabbalah and Western mystical traditions.

Although he wrote numerous works, his most famous legacy was the creation of the Tarot deck that bears his name, a contribution that consecrated him worldwide.
