This unrivaled compendium will appeal both to Freemasons wishing to learn the full story of their order and to a general audience that is intensely curious about this traditionally secretive and closed movement.The coverage includesThe historical and philosophical background of the order, including the Knights Templar, the medieval stonemasons' guilds, and esoteric traditions such as Kabbalah and HermeticismIts history from the earliest Masons to the present day, including famous members and scandalsIts geographical spread from Japan to California, Sweden to South Africa Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
