TO FATHOM THE GIST: VOLUME II: The Arch-Absurd
Austin: 2014. 427 pages. Item #17237
Paperback in new condition.
The second volume of To Fathom the Gist examines in depth how Gurdjieff wrote Beelzebub's Tales to His Grandson and discusses the three ways of reading the book in light of how the book was written. It provides useful perspectives on the book by examining the 1931 Manuscript (the earliest edition of The Tales) and comparing it to Gurdjieff's final version. It also analyzes the 1992 revision of The Tales in depth. Finally, this volume investigates the Arch-Absurd Beelzebub's assertion that our Sun neither lights nor heats.
