Abraxas
Fulgur Press
Founded in 2009 by Robert Shehu-Ansell of Fulgur Limited and Christina Oakley Harrington of Treadwells Bookshop, the Abraxas project aimed to represent the best of the international esoteric movement in a high quality printed format. Published bi-annually in the spring and autumn, the journal offered readers relevant and thought-provoking features: ranging from essays that are scholarly and engaging, to images that challenge and inspire. In total, eight issues were produced, including two specials. Publication was suspended in November 2014.
Luminous Screen is our second Special Issue of Abraxas. It is a collection of essays commissioned by guest editor Jack Sargeant that seek to explore the impact of esotericism on cinema.
