A. E. Waite

Arthur Edward Waite (2 October 1857 – 19 May 1942), commonly known as A. E. Waite, was an American-born British poet and scholarly mystic who wrote extensively on occult and esoteric matters, and was the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. As his biographer R. A. Gilbert described him, "Waite's name has survived because he was the first to attempt a systematic study of the history of western occultism—viewed as a spiritual tradition rather than as aspects of proto-science or as the pathology of religion."〔Gilbert, R.A. ''A.E. Waite: Magician of Many Parts'', Wellingborough, Northamptonshire, 1987, p. 361.〕
==Early life==
Waite was born in Brooklyn, New York, United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Arthur Edward Waite )〕 Waite's father, Capt. Charles F. Waite, died when he was very young, and his widowed mother, Emma Lovell, returned to her home country of England, where he was then raised.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Arthur Edward Waite )〕 As they were not well off, Waite was educated at a small private school in North London. When he was 13, he was then educated at St. Charles' College.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Arthur Edward Waite )〕 When he left school to become a clerk he wrote verse in his spare time. In 1863 Waite's mother converted to Catholicism. The death of his sister Frederika Waite in 1874 soon attracted him into psychical research. At 21, he began to read regularly in the Library of the British Museum, studying many branches of esotericism. In 1881 Waite discovered the writings of Eliphas Levi.
When Waite was almost 30 he married Ada Lakeman (also called "Lucasta"), and they had one daughter, Sybil. Some time after Lucasta's death in 1924, Waite married Mary Broadbent Schofield. He spent most of his life in or near London, connected to various publishing houses and editing a magazine, ''The Unknown World''.
