The Hieroglyphics of Horapollo

This work presents a Renaissance-era translation and commentary on the ancient Greek text attributed to Horapollo, a key source for early European ideas about Egyptian hieroglyphs. Historically important for the way it shaped symbolic and occult interpretations of Egypt, it contains allegorical explanations of hieroglyphic signs that influenced later esoteric and hermetic thought.

Alexander Turner Cory is a relatively obscure figure and may be associated with esoteric or occult literature, but I cannot confidently identify a well-documented biography. If you intended a specific author or variant spelling, I can help verify the name.
