This vintage book contains a fascinating exploration of the tradition of freemasonry, looking particularly at the relationship between the craft and the upper echelons of the order's grades. Arthur Edward Waite (1857 - 1942), more commonly referred to as A. E. Waite, was an American-born British mystic and poet. He wrote profusely on the subject of the occult and esoteric matters, and is famous for being the co-creator of the Rider-Waite Tarot deck. His work arguably constitutes the first attempt to systematically studying the history of western occultism, which he viewed more of a spiritual tradition than proto-science or pseudo-religion, as was the more common conception. Contents include: The Root-Matter of the Alleged Hermetic Connection , The School of Alchemy: In Excursus , Masonic Systems of Alchemical Degrees and, Firstly, the Hermetic Rite of Abbe Pernety , Masonic Systems of Alchemical Degrees and, Secondly, The Hermetic Rite of Baron Tschoudy , etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
