Aleister Crowley / 阿莱斯特·克劳利

Aleister Crowley appears in 60.闲聊伟大作家们的八卦(第一弹) as the occult figure whose rivalry with W. B. Yeats / 叶芝 makes the Golden Dawn / 金色黎明 segment especially comic. The source says the two disliked each other immediately: Yeats considered Crowley immoral, while Crowley framed Yeats as jealous of his magical ability.

Crowley matters here as a source-local connector, not as a full occult biography. The episode uses him to show that literary circles and occult circles overlapped in a way that could generate real creative influence, ideological seriousness, personal rivalry, and absurd posturing.
