First published in four volumes in 1794, Ann Radcliffe’s “The Mysteries of Udolpho” is an unparalleled example of Gothic romance and was wildly popular upon its first appearance. Often cited as the archetypal Gothic novel, the story portrays the multitude of misfortunes heaped upon the admirable French heroine, Emily St. Aubert. Losing first her mother, then her beloved father, the orphaned Emily must be separated from her newfound love Valancourt to live with her aunt and new guardian, Madame Cheron. Emily then faces the evil machinations of her aunt’s husband, the Italian brigand Signor Montoni, who imprisons the two women in the dismal, degenerate, and isolated castle Udolpho. It is here where Emily must overcome persecution from an unwelcome suitor, the threats of Montoni, and, most frightening of all, the psychological terror of apparently supernatural occurrences and her own riotous, horrified imagination. Radcliffe expertly transitions from the striking mountain landscapes of France and Italy to the illusory and fantastical terrain of the heroine’s mind and creates an enthralling tale that explores the farthest reaches of a young woman’s experiences of outer and inner life. This edition is printed on premium acid-free paper.

What is stated in the Book of Genesis in the form of allegory can be reduced to ideas, and these ideas can be worked out by the guidance of mental laws. In "The Mysteries of Genesis," author Charles Fillmore explains the many symbols found in the Book of Genesis and interprets their meanings, so that anyone can understand and apply the message to their own development, thus providing the most logical key to an understanding of the beginnings of humankind and the universe. Through examination of each chapter and verse of the first book of the Bible, "The Mysteries of Genesis" demystifies the essential spiritual philosophy and reveals its lessons for us today."The Bible veils in its history the march of humankind from innocence and ignorance to a measure of sophistication and understanding. Over all hovers the divine idea of humankind, the perfect-person pattern, the Creator, who is a perpetual source of inspiration and power for every person. Those who seek to know this Creator and its manifestation, Jesus Christ, receive a certain spiritual quickening that opens the inner eye of the soul, and they see beyond the land of shadows into the world of Spirit."
