      abstract = {The nineteenth century witnessed a proliferation of  alternative religious currents and practices, appropriating  earlier traditions, entangling geographically distinct  spiritual discourses, and crafting a repository of  mindscapes eminently suitable to be accommodated by later  generations of thinkers and practitioners. Penned by  specialists in the field, this volume examines important  themes and figures pertaining to this occult amalgam and  its resonance into the twentieth century and beyond. Global  guises of the occult, ranging from the Americas and Europe  to India, are variously addressed, with special attention  to the crucial role of mesmerism and the origins of modern  yoga. Lukas Pokorny is Professor and Chair in Religious  Studies at the Department of Religious Studies, University  of Vienna, Austria. Franz Winter is Professor of Religious  Studies at the Department of Religious Studies, University  of Graz, Austria.},
