Book Description

Rose City Books is honored to present this new edition of Augustin Barruel's, The Antisocial Conspiracy, the third volume from his History of Jacobinism. It's superbly translated from the 1798, London first edition, and handsomely formatted in the original layout style. Also included for historical reference is the 1798, British Critic (scholarly review of the third volume), plus single letters from Thomas Jefferson & George Washington, and five source images. Originally written in French, Barruel's massive authoritative work (four volumes in total) was completed in 1798. And the third volume was just making its way to the press (near the end of 1797), when Robison's Proofs of a Conspiracy was published. This third part details the hierarchy of the Bavarian Illuminati secret society, and its founder Adam Weishaupt.

British Freemasonry, 1717-1813


Book Description

Freemasonry was a major cultural and social phenomenon and a key element of the Enlightenment. It was to have an international influence across the globe. This primary resource collection charts a key period in the development of organized Freemasonry culminating in the formation of a single United Grand Lodge of England. The secrecy that has surrounded Freemasonry has made it difficult to access information and documents about the organization and its adherents in the past. This collection is the result of extensive archival research and transcription and highlights the most significant themes associated with Freemasonry. The documents are drawn from masonic collections, private archives and libraries worldwide. The majority of these texts have never before been republished. Documents include rituals (some written in code), funeral services, sermons, songs, certificates, an engraved list of lodges, letters, pamphlets, theatrical prologues and epilogues, and articles from newspapers and periodicals. This collection will enable researchers to identify many key masons for the first time. It will be of interest to students of Freemasonry, the Enlightenment and researchers in eighteenth-century studies. Includes more than 550 texts - Many texts are published here by special arrangement with the Library and Museum of Freemasonry, London - Contains over 260 pages of newly transcribed manuscript material - Documents are organized thematically - Full editorial apparatus including general introduction, volume introductions, headnotes and explanatory endnotes - A consolidated index appears in the final volume
