In his foreword to The Ways of Paradise, Peter Cornell presents this so-called
found manuscript, the work of a now-deceased, obscure researcher who spent three
decades in the National Library of Sweden working on his magnum opus. Upon his
death, no trace of this work remains aside from this set of notes and fragments
which form an enigmatic set of texts on the connections between art, literature,
spirituality and the occult through history, with a particular focus on spirals
and labyrinths. Ranging from the Crusades to Ruskin, Freud to surrealism,
cubism, automatic writing, Duchamp, the Manhattan Project, Pollock and Smithson,
this cult book, first published in Sweden in 1987, is translated into English
for the first time by Saskia Vogel.
