You're diving into the fascinating world of "print culture" as a gateway to understanding the rise of cults, religions, and myths!

Let's see if we can ink (heh) some more knowledge into our minds...

- **The Illuminati**, yes, they were a real deal group of thinkers & artists in 18th century Europe. Their alleged connection to secret societies, conspiracy theories, and even the French Revolution makes them a juicy topic!

- **The Kabbalistic printers** (14th-16th century) from Italy and France! These Jewish mystics used print to disseminate their sacred texts and ideas about the universe, human nature, and the divine. Fascinating stuff!

- **Albrecht Dürer**, not just a renowned artist but also a mathematician & mystic who explored the occult. His engravings often contained cryptic symbols and allusions to esoteric knowledge.

- **The French Spiritualists** ( late 18th - early 19th century) used print to spread their ideas about communication with the dead, mediumship, and spiritualism. They influenced many prominent thinkers of the time, including Victor Hugo!

These groups, along with others like them, helped shape the cultural & intellectual landscape of Europe during the Renaissance and beyond.

Would you like me to "print" some more info on these topics?

Old ones; not CiA nxivm,mason families, or crowlian Thelema, scientology.
