Correspondences is simplifying its name. You can now find us under the new, simplified title of Correspondences: Journal for the Study of Esotericism. In addition to trimming a couple of fairly self-evident terms, we’ve dropped the “Western” from our old title in order to reflect an ongoing shift in global scholarship of esoteric phenomena, one which has partly unfolded in the pages of Correspondences (e.g.’Beyond the West: Towards a New Comparativism in the Study of Esotericism‘ [vol 2] and ‘The Globalization of Esotericism‘ [vol 3]).
Volume 5 is Released
Correspondences 5 (2017) marks our Wood Anniversary, so this volume is a celebration. Now available in finalised form, the volume features new research on Theosophy and clairvoyance, the curious neologism correspondentia, and the portrayal of reincarnation in H.P. Blavatsky’s writing. In addition, there is a review article on three recent publications in the study of Satanism and five further reviews.

New article online: James F. Lawrence, “Correspondentia: A Neologism by Aquinas Attains its Zenith in Swedenborg”
We just published an advance version of James F. Lawrence’s article “Correspondentia: A Neologism by Aquinas Attains its Zenith in Swedenborg.” The article, which can be read in Volume 5 (2017), “performs a word history on correspondentia, a neo-Latin construction by Thomas Aquinas in Scholastic thought attempting to interpret Aristotle on the perception of truth, and then tracks succeeding circles of the neologism’s utility.” This study is important for both the Swedenborg enthusiasts as well as anyone interested in “Western esotericism” and cultural history.
