This is a study of the Hermetic literature focusing the seventeen treatises of the socalled Corpus Hermeticum, complemented by extents of many other Philosophical Hermetic treatises. That what are nowadays known as the Philosophical Hermetica, emerged as a product of a GraecoEgyptian process of selfperception. In this book, the Hermetica will be treated as the result of crosscultural exchange between Greek and Egyptian symbolic universes. Another approach of this book is a comparative analysis of how Hermetists from different ideological backgrounds dealt with the Hermetica as a common tool to consolidate their own system of beliefs as social discourses. The conflict of Christian, Pagan and Gnostic usages of Hermetic texts managed to drown this literature into a dispute for the monopoly of truth in Late Antiquity.
