Product Description
Plummer writes: The object of this article is to answer many questions which have arisen among Masons regarding the Rosicrucian fraternity, which has no connection whatever with the Rose Croix degrees of the Scottish Rite; to correct false impressions created by clandestine bodies and many misconceptions which have arisen otherwise. Let us hope that a better understanding may develop between the two fraternities-neither of which encroaches whatsoever upon the work of the other, but instead, should cooperate to the fullest extent. ...

3-0 out of 5 stars Out of print; out of date
This two-volume set is a peculiar piece of scholarship.It's main purpose seems to be to "save" Andreae from claims that he was anything other than an orthodox Lutheran (in Montgomery's conservative, 20th-century understanding of the terms).Of course, he was instead very much a man of his time (as is Montgomery).

[Vol. II reproduces an old translation of the "Chemical Wedding of Christian Rosenkreutz" with footnotes comparing it to "The Lord of the Rings"!]

Readers are well advised to refer to the newer translation of the "Chemical Wedding" by Joscelyn Godwin.It has the advantage of being both superior and readily available.Works cited in that volume will also provide more authoritative context to both Andreae and his work than Montgomery's apologetic showpiece.

5-0 out of 5 stars A scholarly study on Andreae and the occult tradition
This two volume work is based on Montgomery's ThD thesis at the University of Strasbourg. It was first issued in 1973 and is scheduled for reissue by Kluwer Publishers. In a series of interrelated essays Montgomery explores the life, labour and thought of the German Lutheran minister Johann Valentin Andreae. He sets Andreae in the context of the Lutheran influences on the rise of modern science and shows, contrary to popular impressions, that from the outset Lutheranism was friendly to scientific research. Then Montgomery seeks to sketch the life and world-view of Andreae and reappraises the long-repeated claim that he was the founder of Rosicrucianism. Montgomery documents from many unpublished primary source materials how Andreae was an orthodox Lutheran theologian and pastor. He shows the intense labour of Andreae to achieve a fusion of thought between faith, science and scholarship in general. He documents Andreae's relationships with various scholars of his day. He also is at pains to show that via Andreae, Lutheran orthodoxy in the 17th century was not ossified. In Andreae we see a fusion between piety and learning. Montgomery thus uses Andreae as an illustration to expose the specious post-Enlightenment interpretations of Lutheran orthodoxy as dry, dull and dead. Furthermore, Montgomery re-opens the case concerning The Chymical Wedding as a document of Rosicrucianism. From primary sources Montgomery demonstrates that Rosicrucianism predated this book and that Andreae's text was an apologia to woo the Rosicrucians back to Christianity. This is a very learned text that has helped stimulate further research in various directions. Although dated in many respects, especially bibliographically, the book is a scholarly gem. It should be of interest to scholars of 17th century intellectual thought, Lutheran theology, and the hermetic traditions of the occult. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Manly Hall's Alchemical Collection
Considerable care was taken in the selection of illustrations as a number of important title pages are reproduced. In some cases a highly symbolic engraving or diagram is given preference. Among the manuscripts there are a number of unique symbols and figures, some of which may not be available elsewhere.

The extensive historical, anecdotal, biographical, and philosophical material set forth in the notes, along with the elaborate system of cross-references, constitute a map of the ideas and history of alchemy almost as complete when read through as an expository text which proceeds chapter by chapter. ...

Product Description
This volume is a study of Rosicrucianism in the early period of the 17th century with emphasis both on the local reception of the Rosicrucian pamphlets in the Baltic area and on the original group of Rosicrucian authors in Tubingen. In the first part of the book the Runic theosophy of the Swedish Rosicrucian Johannes Bureus is studied in its millenarian context, beginning with his "Adulruna Rediviva" of 1616. The Paracelsian prophecy of the Lion of the North is also shown to be a Rosicrucian theme. The general millenarian background to the Rosicrucian publications is then explored and implications are drawn from the Rosicrucian doctrine of the great conjunctions, from the emergence of new stars, and from their comet research. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars Rose Cross over the Baltic
Much new information on the Rosicrucians has emerged in recent years. The publishing conditions for the first Rosicrucian manifestoes have been studied in detail and the origin of these writings in Tubingen and Cassel have been set beyond doubt. With this emphasis on local events in Southern Germany it has become increasingly evident that it is time to construct a general perspective of the movement that supplants Francis Yates controversial statement, The Rosicrucian Enlightenment (1973). The way to do so is to study the various Rosicrucian replies as they emerged in their local settings. In this book, Akerman does this for the Baltic area. She investigates the millenarian aspects of Rosicrucianism as it emerges from a reading of Johannes Burcus' papers. This material has been little known due to the reticence of researchers to publish on Burcus as a Rosicrucian. When Burcus' favorite idea, that of The Lion of the North, was studied by Johan Nordstrom in the 1930s, it was readily seen that it could be associated with the Nazi myth of the Nordic Superman. Confronted by the negative role of national myths, Nordstrom abandoned the project of making a synthesis of the Paracelsian and Hermetic material found in Swedish archives. In 1942, Nordstrom's student Sten Lindroth published on Brucus as a Paracelsian but kept the references to the Lion of the North to a minimum. Here, Akerman shows that the Paracelsian myth of the Lion to the North was an essential ingredient in the political use of the Rosicrucian writings.

Product Description
Here, Tilton Hereward presents an intellectual biography of the Lutheran alchemist Count Michael Maier, along with an academic study of western esotericism in general and of alchemy and rosicrucianism in particular. Hereward charts the development of Maier's Hermetic worldview in the context of his service at the courts of Emperor Rudolf II and Moritz of Hessen-Kassel. The problem of the nature of early Rosicrucianism is addressed in detail, with reference to Maier's role in the promotion of this "serious jest" in the years immediately prior to the outbreak of the Thirty Years' War. The work is set in the context of ongoing debates concerning the nature of early modern alchemy and its role in the history of Western esotericism. ... Read more

Excerpt: Alexandru Bogdan-Piteti (Romanian pronunciation: ; born Alexandru Bogdan, also known as Ion Doican or Ion Duican; June 13, 1870 1922) was a Romanian Symbolist poet, essayist, and art and literary critic, who was also known as a journalist and left-wing political agitator. A wealthy landowner, he invested his fortune in patronage and art collecting, becoming one of the main local promoters of modern art. Together with other Post-Impressionist and Symbolist cultural figures, Bogdan-Piteti established Societatea Ileana, which was one of the first Romanian associations dedicated to promoting the avant-garde and independent art. He was also noted for his friendship with the writers Joris-Karl Huysmans, Alexandru Macedonski, Tudor Arghezi and Mateiu Caragiale, as well as for sponsoring, among others, the painters tefan Luchian, Constantin Artachino and Nicolae Vermont. In addition to his literary and political activities, Alexandru Bogdan-Piteti was himself a painter and graphic artist. Much of Bogdan-Piteti's controversial political career, inaugurated by his support for anarchism, was dedicated to activism and support for revolution, while he showed an interest in the occult and maintained close contacts with Joséphin Péladanwhose 1898 visit to Bucharest he funded. He was detained by the authorities at various intervals, including an arrest for sedition during the 1899 election, and was later found guilty of having blackmailed the banker Aristide Blank. Late in his life, he founded Seara, a Germanophile daily, as well as a literary and political circle which came to oppose Romania's entry into World War I on the Entente Powers' side. He was arrested one final time upon the end o...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=12257864 ... Read more

Chapters: Rosicrucianism. Source: Wikipedia. Pages: 125. Not illustrated. Free updates online. Purchase includes a free trial membership in the publisher's book club where you can select from more than a million books without charge. Excerpt: Hermeticism Rosicrucianism is the theology of a secret society of mystics, said to have been founded in late medieval Germany by Christian Rosenkreuz. It holds a doctrine "built on esoteric truths of the ancient past", which, "concealed from the average man, provide insight into nature, the physical universe and the spiritual realm." It is symbolized by the Rosy Cross. Between 1607 and 1616, two anonymous manifestos were published, first in Germany and later throughout Europe. These were Fama Fraternitatis RC (The Fame of the Brotherhood of RC) and Confessio Fraternitatis (The Confession of the Brotherhood of RC). The influence of these documents, presenting a "most laudable Order" of mystic-philosopher-doctors and promoting a "Universal Reformation of Mankind", gave rise to an enthusiasm called by its historian Dame Frances Yates the "Rosicrucian Enlightenment". Rosicrucianism was associated with Protestantism and in particular Lutheranism. According to historian David Stevenson, it was also influential to Freemasonry as it was emerging in Scotland. In later centuries, many esoteric societies have claimed to derive their doctrines, in whole or in part, from the original Rosicrucians. Several modern societies, which date the beginning of the Order to earlier centuries, have been formed for the study of Rosicrucianism and allied subjects. The Fama Fraternitatis presented the legend of a German doctor and mystic philosopher referred to as "Frater C.R.C." (later identified in a third manifesto as Christian Rosenkreuz, or "Rose-cross"). The year 1378 is presented as being the birth year of "our Christian Father," and it is stated that he lived 106 years. After studying in the Middle East und...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=49972 ...
