A proposito di questo titolo

 This series explores the cultural history of America through a person by person examination spanning from the pre-colonial era, to colonial times, into the eighteenth, nineteenth, and twentieth centuries. The series is fittingly bookended by presentations about indigenous American cultures.

This person-by-person historical exploration winds its way through the lives of ancient Amerindian cultures, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, James Fenimore Cooper, James McNeill Whistler, Ralph Waldo Emerson, Henry David Thoreau, Herman Melville, Walt Whitman, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Greene and Greene (Charles Sumner Greene and Henry Mather Greene), William James, Henry Adams, Winslow Homer, William Faulkner, Andrew Wyeth, Alan Hovhaness, Morris Graves, and Black Elk.

This series of lectures was originally delivered by Roger Weir in the spring of 1982 in Los Angeles, California.

    Alan Hovhaness & Morris Graves - Mysticism in Music and Art
    Aug 30 2025
    Discover the American Hermetic tradition through the visionary works of Alan Hovhaness and Morris Graves—a composer and a painter who each sought transcendence beyond the visible world. Hovhaness’s mystical music, rooted in Eastern modes and cosmic harmony, resonates with Graves’s spiritual imagery of birds, light, and inner silence. Together, they reflect a uniquely American search for the sacred hidden within art.

  • Why William Faulkner and Andrew Wyeth Still Captivate America

    Why William Faulkner and Andrew Wyeth Still Captivate America
    Aug 4 2025
    Dive into the American Hermetic tradition through the haunting worlds of William Faulkner and Andrew Wyeth—two artists who, across words and images, revealed the layered, symbolic depths of rural life, memory, and the unseen forces shaping identity. This presentation explores how Faulkner’s Southern gothic landscapes and Wyeth’s solitary, inward-looking scenes both channel a hidden metaphysical dimension within the American psyche.

    This is the eleventh in a series of 13 presentations that explores Hermetic American history by focusing on a diverse group of hermetic figures spanning architecture, poetry, drama, religion, esoteric philosophy, and occultism. These presentations were delivered by Roger Weir in the spring of 1982 in Los Angeles, California.
