Combinación de doctrinas mitológicas egipcias con un lenguaje filosófico griego, el hermetismo nació como un culto sincretico al divino y "tres veces grandísimo" Hermes-Thot, bajo la advocación del legendario Hermes Trismegisto. Su tradicion se basa en una serie de textos que se escribieron sobre todo entre los siglos II y III d. C., pero que fueron mucho mas alla. Su base discursiva filosofica combinada con su mistica los hizo muy populares durante siglos y aun hoy despiertan gran interes.Esta edicion probablemente sea la mejor y mas completa que existe en español del Corpus hermeticum. Los textos han sido traducidos directamente del griego por Francesc Xavier Renau, experto en hermetismo, que tambien los anota cuidadosamente y escribe un interesantisima y necesaria introduccion.
