Fabre d'Olivet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Antoine Fabre d'Olivet (December 8, 1767-March 25, 1825) was a French author, poet and composer whose Biblical and philosophical hermeneutics influenced many occulists, such as Eliphas Lévi and Gerard Encausse. His best known work today is his research on the Hebrew language, Pythagoras's thirty-six Golden Verses and the sacred art of music. He was declared a non-person by Napoleon I and condemned by the Pope. Outside of esotericism, he also invented the poetic measure of eumolpique.
