De entre todos los libros perdidos de la Antiguedad, tal vez sea La Tabla de Esmeralda el que, desde hace siglos, haya despertado mayor curiosidad y controversia a la vez que ha excitado la imaginacion de generaciones de personajes de todo tipo debido a su legendario caracter sagrado y a su fama de deposito de conocimiento y sabiduria provenientes del mismo dios Thot. Con una existencia real para algunos y, para otros, producto del mito y la fabula, lo cierto es que este texto ha sido uno de los pilares basicos sobre el que se levanto todo el hermetismo y esoterismo de occidente y, por otro, fue una de las fuentes de las que mas abundantemente bebio el pensamiento gnostico. En esta obra, el autor afirma haber recibido en Egipto, de manos de una familia copta, una copia de una parte de la autentica Tabla de Esmeralda, concretamente la parte del Oraculo de Thot que se reproduce integro en estas paginas.
