About the Book

Don Quixote and the Brilliant Name of Fire reveals for the first time the true extent of the esoteric dimension of the classic Spanish work. References to cards of the Tarot deck, a means of progression on the inner journey, have long been noted in it; but Don Quixote and the Brilliant Name of Fire will show their full extent, as well as demonstrating spectacular visual representations of Hebrew letters of the Qabalah, and the strict allegory of psychic transformation—in the way of the Shakespeare plays—in which these symbols have their place. The close kinship of Don Quixote and the Shakespeare First Folio becomes plain, and their origin in a common author, neither Will Shakespeare nor Cervantes. www.thegreatpesher.com


About the Author

Michael Buhagiar was born in 1954 in Sydney, Australia. He spent several years at Sydney University, studying Medicine initially, before graduating with a first-class honours degree in Science. He has had poems, book reviews and articles published in leading journals, all deriving from an intense enthusiasm for symbolism and the written word. His first book, Ugly Dick and the Goddess of Complete Being (2003), is a sequel to the late Ted Hughes’ Shakespeare and the Goddess of Complete Being, extending and completing Hughes’ demonstration of the psycho-allegorical dimension of the Shakespeare plays. Don Quixote and the Brilliant Name of Fire is his second published book
