Western Esoteric Studies is a cross-disciplinary field which emerged out of religious studies in the 1990s.  My research fields include 20th Century occult streams, Freemasonry, and Kabbalah.   Naturally, the posts and links curated here will reflect these interests – although a few surprises are likely in store.

For serious students of Western Esotericism, I highly recommend these initial resources:

Association for the Study of Western Esotericism

Esoterica Publications (ASE affiliated)

J.R. Ritman Library, Amsterdam

Exeter Centre for the Study of Esotericism

The Centre for Research into Freemasonry and Fraternalism

Mysticism and Western Esotericism at the University of Amsterdam

The Society for the Academic Study of Magic
