  • The Magical Revival is a nonfiction book written by British occultist Kenneth Grant, first published in 1972. It is the first of his "Typhonian Trilogy", which comprises this work and two others—Aleister Crowley and the Hidden God (1973) and Cults of the Shadow (1975). In this work, he first introduced his theory that American horror author H. P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu mythos was psychic revelation presented as fiction, an idea which he would ela­borate and extend further in his later works. Grant claimed in this book that there was an unconscious conn­ection between Lovecraft and occultist Aleister Crowley, arguing that both of them channeled their work from the same occult forces altho­ugh Lovecraft was not consciously aware of the alleged otherworldly sources of his literary inspirations. This idea—that what is ostensibly presented as fiction is often a vehi­cle masking deeper realities—has precedence in the inclusion by Crowl­ey of many works of fiction in the official reading syllabus of his magical order, the A∴A∴.
