"In naming his book 'Tertium Organum' Ouspensky reveals at a stroke that astounding audacity which characterizes his thought throughout-an audacity which we are accustomed to associate with the Russian mind in all its phases. Such a title says, in effect: 'Here is a book which will reorganize all knowledge. The 'Organon' of Aristotle formulated the laws under which the subject thinks; the 'Novum Organum' of Bacon, the laws under which the object may be known; but 'The Third Canon of Thought' existed before these two, and ignorance of its laws does not justify their violation. 'Tertium Organum' shall guide and govern human thought henceforth.'"-From the Introduction.
Autorenporträt
Peter D. Ouspensky (1878 - 1947) was a Russian esotericist known for his expositions of the early work of the Greek-Armenian teacher of esoteric doctrine George Gurdjieff. He met Gurdjieff in Moscow in 1915 and was associated with the ideas and practices originating with Gurdjieff from then on. He taught ideas and methods based in the Gurdjieff system for 25 years in England and the United States, although he separated from Gurdjieff personally in 1924, for reasons that are explained in the last chapter of his book In Search of the Miraculous.
