Published in Spring 2025, Volume 54 of Sacred Web brings together essays, reviews, and poetry rooted in traditional metaphysics, with a particular emphasis on what it means to be human in a world increasingly drawn toward materialism and transhumanist ideals. The volume's cover image of Doctor Faustus sets the tone, and contributions draw on a variety of mystical traditions including Christian, Muslim, and Buddhist. A special section explores the feminine in folklore and mythology, while poetry and reviews complete this wide-ranging collection.
