«Presagios del milenio» is Harold Bloom's essay, published by Editorial Anagrama in hardcover (240 pages, in Spanish).
Harold Bloom examines the millenarian obsessions of the West: angels, prophetic dreams and resurrection, tracing them back to Hebrew, Christian and Sufi traditions. He draws on his studies of Gnosticism, Kabbalah and Shiite Sufism to champion an introspective spirituality against the New Age.
Part of Anagrama's Argumentos collection (no. 192). Translated by Damià Alou.
