The Legenda and Readings of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry is a comprehensive book written by Albert Pike. It is a collection of the legends and teachings of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, which is one of the most widely recognized and influential Masonic organizations in the world. The book is divided into three parts. The first part provides an overview of the history and origins of the Scottish Rite, including its early development in France and its subsequent spread throughout the world. The second part of the book is dedicated to the Legenda, which are a series of allegorical tales and fables that are used to illustrate the various degrees of the Scottish Rite. These stories are designed to convey important moral and ethical lessons to the reader, and are an essential part of the Scottish Rite's teachings.The third part of the book is devoted to the Readings, which are a collection of lectures and essays that explore the deeper meanings and symbolism of the Scottish Rite. These readings cover a wide range of topics, including philosophy, religion, history, and science, and are intended to help the reader develop a deeper understanding of the Masonic tradition.Overall, The Legenda and Readings of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history and teachings of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. It provides a detailed and comprehensive overview of the organization's beliefs and practices, and is a valuable tool for anyone seeking to deepen their understanding of this important Masonic tradition.There are other things that you should hear said now, and without which you will not be fully in possession of this degree... You will find them in the Legenda... (quote from the 26th degree, AASR, SMJ). This book contains ALL of the �������Legenda������� and �������Readings������� written for members of the Scottish Rite to supplement the ritualistic instruction. This anthology is similar, in some respects, to Pike's Lectures on Masonic Symbolism, but was considered REQUIRED READING by Pike himself. No Mason can truly understand the Scottish Rite degrees without reading this essential work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
