- Title

- Authors
POPADIUK, NICHOLAS T.; KEATING JR., JOSEPH C.; MONTGOMERY, D. PATRICK; SIORDDIA, LAWRENCE
- Abstract
Francis Israel Regardie, D.C. is something of an enigma: a celebrity in one community - the world of the occult - and a forgotten figure in the history of chiropractic. An author, masseur, chiropractor, magician, psychotherapist and scholar, the largest volume from his prolific pen resides in the literature of the "Western Esoteric Tradition." He is considered one of the preeminent occult scholars and an important influence in the occult revival of the twentieth century. However, his numerous psychoanalytic writings, the bulk of which may be found in the Chirogram -- periodical of the Los Angeles College of Chiropractic -- remain to be explored. As well, the ways in which Regardie synthesized magic, psychotherapy and manual therapies merit further analysis.
