Hoffstein, Robert M. A MYSTICAL KEY TO THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE.
Destiny, Rochester, Vermont, (1992).
187 pp, 8vo (9" H), soft cover. "The English alphabet was originally intended as a means of instruction in the sacred 'word' of God. Robert Hoffstein explains that words are not arbitrarily chosen but constructed on ageless principles, an awarenes s of which allows us to communicate with more understanding and potency. Through his analysis of the vowels and consonants, the author demonstrates the meanings hidden in the basic sounds of English words. Pointing out that many English words ar e related to words and sounds from diverse places and peoples, Hoffstein argues that languages may be connected cross-culturally on the level of the collective unconscious. He shows how even the most ordinary words have within them keys that can b e d eciphered for a better understanding of our language and our lives. With an unusual blend of humor and insight, Hoffstein analyzes the true nature of the language we use, so that its deeper significance as an earthly agent of divine purpose is no t lost."

Exterior - minor rubbing, very small shallow dint on front cover, very small surface paper loss at top/bottom of rear hinge, very small closed tear at top of rear hinge, tiny bu mp at bottom of spine, minor wear at top of spine.
