Crafting the Arte of Tradition.
Montreal, Canada: Anathema Publishing, 2016. First Edition. Hardcover. Octavo. 200pp. Gilt lettered bonded leather spine with matching blind stamped cloth boards, metallic endpapers, colour and b&w illustrations, appendices. Edition limited to 300 copies of which 280 are bound as this one (each copy ritually consecrated & hand-numbered). Oates is a practitioner whose writings have been published by Scarlet Imprint, Fulgur, Mandrake and Avalonia - and which include: ‘Tubelo’s Green Fire’; ‘The Arcane Veil'; ‘A Paean for Hekate’ and ‘The People of Goda’. Of this volume the publisher says: "Studying all matters of arte, Oates discusses and describes principles and methodologies of instinctive imperatives fundamental to a ‘lived’ Tradition: ‘The People of Goda, of the Clan Tubal Cain.’ The Tradition crossroads is the nexus point for all magics, all craft, all faith and all belief - and many examples are taken apart and examined to grasp at the subtle gnosis within, to begin the process of alchemy, whereby each craftsman becomes their own tool of arte."
