Dr. William Wynn Westcott (1848–1925) was a significant figure in the late 19th and early 20th-century esoteric circles, as well as a respected physician, coroner, and author. His scholarly interests extended beyond his medical practice into the realms of Rosicrucianism, Freemasonry, the Kabbalah, and various strands of Western occult traditions, which were burgeoning with interest during his time. As a coroner for Hoxton in the northeast of London, Westcott was able to merge his professional life with his esoteric leanings, sometimes reflecting on the psychological and metaphysical aspects of mortality, highlighted in his scholarly treatise 'Suicide' (1894). As an author, he delved into the themes of life and death, the soul's journey, and the esoteric meanings behind mundane practices. Westcott was also a co-founder of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, one of the most influential occult organizations of the period. His extensive writings reflect a deep immersion in the symbolic and practical dimensions of hermetic philosophy and were instrumental in the revival of esoteric knowledge. His literary style was detailed and methodical, appealing to a readership that was both learned and interested in the more mysterious aspects of life and the afterlife.
