Twenty-Two Impressions: Notes from the Major Arcana - Hardcover
by Jessica Friedmann (Author)
A poetic new essay collection in which the symbols of Renaissance-era tarot brush up against life in a changing world.
In 2018, author Jessica Friedmann bought her first deck of tarot cards, a facsimile copy of the Tarot de Marseille. This 15th-century deck, with its unfamiliar images, sparked a deep immersion in the art, symbols, myths, and misrepresentations of Renaissance-era tarot.
Over the years that followed, and as tarot became a part of her daily rhythm, Friedmann's life in rural Australia was touched by floods and by drought, by bushfires and the pandemic, creating an environment in which the only constant was change.
Twenty-Two Impressions: Notes from the Major Arcana uses the Tarot de Marseille as a touchstone for these years, blending historical research, art history, and critical insights with personal reflections. In these essays, Friedmann demonstrates how the cards of the Major Arcana can be used as a lens through which to examine the unexpectedness--and subtle beauty--of 21st-century life.
