Isaac Bonewits and a Degree in Magic

I was honoured to receive the first UK Masters Degree in Western Esotericism, but someone beat me by 38 years to the B.A. and in a curious sense, served as my role-model for academic studies of the subject. I was delighted to find this again in my archives! It’s from 1970 and is an article on Isaac Bonewits receiving a “Degree in Magic”. Apparently, the University were so embarrassed by the resulting publicity they dropped any further inclusion of the subject from their Degrees. It’s good to know that now three or four universities now study western esotericism with a more inclusive academic approach!
