The Warburg Institute is dedicated to the study of global cultural history and the role of images in society. It examines the movement of culture across barriers-of time, space and discipline-to inspire, inform and connect.
99 names of Allah vs 50 names of Marduk. The patron god of ancient Ur was Nanaar Sin whose religious symbol was a crescent moon embracing an eight pointed star. (Both present by Kabba)Kabba vs kabbalah. Also the dream of Gilgamesh was of a falling star that the people of Uruk gathered around it and moved around it. Kissing the falling star like a little baby. Loving it and embracing it as a wife. 🤔
I would love to know the opinions of these great scholars regarding the so called Leonardo and Durer's unfinished Salvator Mundi and whether there was a meeting in Italy namely Venice.

worshipping and fear of anything except Allah is a major sin (shirk) in Islam , we only worship Allah , we only fear Allah ,we only ask Allah for help , no matter what .
Excellent thank you. Van Eyck a marriage of perfect technique and a very unusual but also sound mind - which is to distinguish from an unusual and unsound mind!
The entire title is contradictory, occultism and magic is stricly forbidden in Islam, so much that it is considered a major sin that puts you outside of the religion when you engage in it. The title should be "occultism and magic in the arabic world".
There is no magic in Islam.. actions, science or magic done by some astray Muslims does not mean this is from Islam.. all Muslims knows Islam fought magic and magician....
Business history is fascinating. I came across a journal called “the Accounting Historians journal,” while researching the history of a piece of furniture (a wooton desk, specifically); it was exciting scholarship, exemplary in its creativity. Love this lecture thank you. I will be visiting the website, etc.
Great, thanks. One point regarding Bosch being conventional in his religious views is - if I correctly caught things - his apparent portraying in The Garden of Earthly Delights of evil in the world ‘before’ Adam and Eve fall. This though is certainly not of the traditional Christian thinking. A bit late to be asking this now, all this time after the video was done, but i wonder how this would be answered.
Basically we have so much of such Knowledge in the Arabic world, in Almost All Libraries you'll find a book containing Magic Practices, 9 out of 10 times the Author will include something in the Beginning like "اتق الله لأن هذا سحر" or the famous Quranic verse "ولا يفلح الساحر حيث أتى" Meaning "Fear God, for this Book will Teach you about Forbidden Magic" (All kinds of Magic is forbidden in islam) or include the Quranic verse in the Story of Moses "Magicians will never Succeed" This is Also Mentioned in the Quran, that many (if not All) Magicians will warn you at the beginning; that you're about to sell the Afterlife for the riches of this Earth; meaning you'll be Guaranteed an Eternal Damnation at the Price of having whatever you want on this Temporary Earthly life
The significance of Democritus is that he was a naturalistic philosopher who thought that we all just die when we die, the world is made of matter, period. The significance of Empedocles is that he believed that he himself had become immortal through being enlightened and other people can too, and believed it to the degree that he launched himself into a caldera. Both images are, I think, meant to make a mockery of religion and its institutions, by going to extremes. Just my opinion, would love to hear other interpretations.
Wonderful presentation, thank you for bringing more light to such a talented and interesting artist. Personally, I love his engravings, they have a draftsman's hand that disappears not long after Rosa with technical innovations. I mean the transition from hand made lines to the Goltzius style of using devices to make swelling and thinning lines in perfect circular orbits, which results in an impression that is stultifying, too regular and impersonal, in my opinion.
Early writings indicate that there was 2 types of magic in Arabic one using aid of spirits(created) which is forbidden and the other using the power of creation itself or directly from God since God/divine will and the creation are essentially the same thing in one
I don’t know if i understood you wrong but are u saying Arabic is bad ? And also in Islam it’s Aalso forbidden to do any type of magic and anyone who does do it will be punished ofc
