Florence Beatrice Emery, published under her birth name Florence Farr, was a West End leading actress, composer, director, women's rights activist, journalist, educator, singer, novelist, and leader of the occult order, the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn under the motto V.H. Soror Sapientia Sapienti Dono Data.
She was a friend and collaborator of Nobel laureate W.B. Yeats, playwright Oscar Wilde, artists Aubrey Beardsley and Pamela Colman Smith, Masonic scholar Arthur Edward Waite, theatrical producer Annie Horniman, and many other literati of London's fin de siècle era, and even by their standards she was "the bohemian's bohemian."
The experiments Farr conducted with the Sphere Group in 1901 with the events and experiences chronicled in her diary. Keys to the Enochian Language, a corrected Holy Table, and a rare full page plate also are included.
