The golden star j michaud5/17/2023 ![]() ![]() The Author may well have added these gems had the Internet existed in 1946! In short, the electronic book that you now have before you is in every essential a faithful copy of the original printed edition. The only additions to the printed book are a few footnotes, and the jewel illustrations which introduce each chapter, or vision. No attempt has been made to ‘modernise’ the Author’s phraseology or his sometimes archaic grammatical constructions. The substitution of ‘Nut’ for ‘Nuit’ (Egyptian goddess) is one example of such changes. The Author’s spelling of foreign words (such as the many Greek, Latin, Sanskrit and ancient Egyptian terms) has been retained except where it differs substantially from modern usage. Spelling and typographical errors have been corrected. For technical reasons, pagination, position of footnotes and the arrangement of the various symbols employed by the Author, differ slightly from the printed book. About this facsimileĪpart from the exceptions mentioned on our Homepage, this facsimile has been completely re-typeset from the original edition published by the UMA Press in 1946. Especially now that a new, high quality hardcover edition is available at a price even the most impecunious reader can afford. ![]() In May 2019 a crude, printed-on-demand paperback copy was issued by ‘Audio Enlightenment.Com’ who have the bare-faced audacity to claim copyright! Please don't waste your money on such imitations. As we update this note in November 2020, the plagiarism has stopped but this does not mean it won’t re-occur in future. None of these illegal copies were approved by the copyright holder or ourselves. Several crude copies of this website have been published on the Internet since we launched it in 2012. It is our sincere hope that in publishing it for the very first time on the Internet, a new generation of readers will have the opportunity to discover this virtually unknown and unappreciated masterpiece of occult literature. It is an exact facsimile of the printed book originally published in hardcover by the Uma Press, in London, in 1946. This website is an electronic edition of The Golden Star by J Michaud PhD, in HTML format, first published in 2012/13.
