Examines the relationship between diverse iterations of Rosicrucianism and the philosophy of the Enlightenment.This new edition of Christopher McIntoshs classic book on the Golden and Rosy Cross order is eagerly awaited. The order stands out as one of the most fascinating and influential of the highdegree Masonic and Illuminist groups that mushroomed in Europe from the eighteenth century onward. Active mainly in the Germanspeaking lands, it recast the original Rosicrucian vision and gave it renewed vitality. At one point it became politically influential when the Prussian King, Frederick William II, was a member of the order. Historians have often perceived the Golden and Rosy Cross as having had a conservative, antiEnlightenment agenda, but this studydrawing on rare German sourcesshows that the matter was more complex. The members of the order practiced alchemy and operated a degree system that was imitated by later orders, such as the Golden Dawn. Like the latter, the Golden and Rosy Cross exerted a wide and enduring cultural influence. Both the alchemy of the order and its powerful ritual system are insightfully described in Christopher McIntoshs clear and compelling style.
