Description

Roland Edighoffer explains how the genesis of Rosicrucianism is linked to the momentous moral, political and spiritual crisis which marked the 17th Century. He shows that the Fama Fraternitatis, the Confessio Fraternitatis and the Chemical Wedding propose solutions to these problems: the members of the Rose-Cross wish to usher in a more fraternal society and for humanity to be regenerated through a spirituality which transcends dogmatic divides. In opposition to the mechanistic vision of the universe which is beginning to emerge, they follow in the footsteps of Paracelsus in order to campaign in favour of a philosophy of nature. On reading this book, one is struck by the realisation that the 17th century crisis is strangely similar to the one we are living through today, and that the ideas unveiled by a Rose-Cross of the past still retain their relevance today. Beyond the story, the author of this book invites us to reflect on man’s place in a world ever more dominated by rationalism. A fundamental book for an understanding of the history and concerns of Rosicrucianism.
