rdf:langString "When I was at Cambridge the whole atmosphere was extremely rationalistic materialistic. Everyone believed the current academic orthodoxies of the time and there seemed no way of questioning them. I was never really sympathetic to them, but I saw no way of questioning them. The first possibility of a breakout occurred to me at the beginning of the UFO phenomenon, in the Fifties when the first UFO books were coming out. It was quite obvious that people were having experiences that weren't allowed for within the context of our education."
rdf:langString "A hallmark of the traditionalist is to see decline and degeneracy where other people see modernity and progress."
rdf:langString "The essentials of John's personal cosmology can be summarized simple as: the human mind can be seen imaged in the canon, a complete cosmology and model of all reality; the origin of human intelligence is still totally mysterious, with no evidence of evolution or gradual development; neither of the above were the result of intervention other than revelation, as sacred history and tradition avers; humankind has been in decline since early prehistory."
rdf:langString "Michell was a one-off. An original. There will never be another like him. John was a scholar, polymath, iconoclast, antiquarian and mystic. An intellectual with an easy manner, dry wit and elegant writing style. A philosopher and author. With his revolutionary vision of prehistoric science far in advance of that accorded early civilisations by archaeologists – a modern-day Merlin of hippiedom – he greatly influenced the baby boomer generation by extolling countercultural values in the areas of earth mysteries, consciousness expansion and New Age thinking."

rdf:langString John Frederick Carden Michell (9 de febrero de 1933 – 24 de abril de 2009) fue un autor y esoterista inglés que fue una figura destacada en el desarrollo del movimiento de los . A lo largo de su vida, publicó más de cuarenta libros sobre una variedad de temas diferentes, siendo un defensor de la escuela tradicionalista de pensamiento esotérico. Nacido en Londres en una familia adinerada, Michell se educó en y Eton College antes de trabajar como traductor de ruso en la Royal Navy durante dos años. Después de suspender una licenciatura en ruso y alemán en el Trinity College de Cambridge, regresó a Londres y trabajó para el negocio inmobiliario de su padre, desarrollando allí su interés por la ufología. Abrazando las ideas contraculturales del movimiento de los misterios de la Tierra durante la década de 1960, en The Flying Saucer Vision se basó en las ideas de Alfred Watkins sobre las líneas ley argumentando que representaban marcas lineales creadas en la prehistoria para guiar naves espaciales extraterrestres. Siguió esto con su trabajo más influyente, The View Over Atlantis, en 1969. Sus ideas estaban en desacuerdo con las de los arqueólogos académicos, por quienes expresó su desprecio. Michell creía en la existencia de una antigua tradición espiritual que conectaba a la humanidad con la divinidad, pero que se había perdido como resultado de la modernidad. Sin embargo, creía que esta tradición se reviviría y que la humanidad entraría en una Edad de Oro, con Gran Bretaña como el centro de esta transformación. Las otras publicaciones de Michell cubrieron una gama ecléctica de temas e incluyeron una descripción general sobre la cuestión de la autoría de Shakespeare, un tratado condenando a Salman Rushdie durante la y un libro de citas de Adolf Hitler. Muy interesado en el fenómeno de los círculos en los cultivos, cofundó una revista dedicada al tema, The Cereologist, en 1990, y fue su editor inicial. Desde 1992 hasta su muerte, escribió una columna para la revista , que se dedicó en gran parte a sus opiniones antimodernistas. Lo acompañó con una columna sobre temas esotéricos para el tabloide Daily Mirror. Michell, longevo fumador de marihuana, murió de cáncer de pulmón en 2009. El impacto de Michell en el movimiento de los misterios de la Tierra fue considerable y, a través de él, también influyó en el movimiento pagano británico. Durante la década de 2000, sus ideas también demostraron una influencia en el sector de la Nueva Derecha.

Over the course of his life he published over forty books on an array of different subjects, being a proponent of the Traditionalist school of esoteric thought. Born in London to a wealthy family, Michell was educated at Cheam School and Eton College before serving as a Russian translator in the Royal Navy for two years. After failing a degree in Russian and German at Trinity College, Cambridge, he returned to London and worked for his father's property business, there developing his interest in Ufology.Embracing the counter-cultural ideas of the Earth mysteries movement during the 1960s, in The Flying Saucer Vision he built on Alfred Watkins' ideas of ley lines by arguing that they represented linear marks created in prehistory to guide extraterrestrial spacecraft. He followed this with his most influential work, The View Over Atlantis, in 1969. His ideas were at odds with those of academic archaeologists, for whom he expressed contempt. Michell believed in the existence of an ancient spiritual tradition that connected humanity to divinity, but which had been lost as a result of modernity. He believed however that this tradition would be revived and that humanity would enter a Golden Age, with Britain as the centre of this transformation. Michell's other publications covered an eclectic range of topics, and included an overview on the Shakespeare authorship question, a tract condemning Salman Rushdie during The Satanic Verses controversy, and a book of Adolf Hitler's quotations. Keenly interested in the crop circle phenomenon, he co-founded a magazine devoted to the subject, The Cereologist, in 1990, and served as its initial editor. From 1992 until his death he wrote a column for The Oldie magazine, which was largely devoted to his anti-modernist opinions. He accompanied this with a column on esoteric topics for the Daily Mirror tabloid.A lifelong marijuana smoker, Michell died of lung cancer in 2009. Michell's impact in the Earth mysteries movement was considerable, and through it he also influenced the British Pagan movement. During the 2000s, his ideas also proved an influence on the Radical Traditionalist sector of the New Right.
