Introduction

 This blog is dedicated to Alain Bougereal's "The Arithmological Tarot", originally written in French.

The first post below this one is my February-March 2020 revision of an essay I wrote in November of 1016 in appreciation of Alain's essay. The main changes are that I have provided more background material, in the form of an introduction, a conclusion, and six more illustrations, with discussion. There are also small changes throughout, plus a Bibliography at the end..I have also prefaced the whole thing with a Preamble that Alain asked if I would write.

Below that is my translation of Alain's essay, as revised Oct. 18, 2016, into English. In earlier form it is at http://www.associazioneletarot.it/page.aspx?id=603&lng=ENG

Below that comes the first draft of my own essay, which I leave on temporarily. It appears in that form at http://www.associazioneletarot.it/page.aspx?id=603&lng=ENG.

Below that, I have put Alain's essay in his original French, as revised Oct. 18, 2016. It appears in an earlier form at http://www.associazioneletarot.it/page.aspx?id=603&lng=ITA.

Below that, Alain has translated some of my essay, as it was in 2016, into French.


Finally, at the bottom is the original essay by Gosselin, as much as is relevant, in the original French and in English translation, for which I thank Steve Mangan on Tarot History Forum.
