Rosicrucians, Past and Present, at Home and Abroad is a comprehensive book written by W. Wynn Westcott that explores the history, beliefs, and practices of the Rosicrucian Order. The Rosicrucian Order is a secret society that originated in Europe during the 17th century, and the book delves into the various branches of the order, including the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, which Westcott was a member of. The book provides a detailed account of the Rosicrucian movement throughout history, tracing its roots back to ancient Egypt and Greece, and exploring its influence on various philosophers, theologians, and mystics. It also examines the Rosicrucian's beliefs in alchemy, astrology, and spiritual transformation, and how these practices have evolved over time. Westcott draws on his own experiences as a member of the Golden Dawn to provide insights into the inner workings of the Rosicrucian Order, including its rituals, symbols, and teachings. He also explores the influence of the Rosicrucians on art, literature, and architecture, and examines the role of the order in shaping the history of Western esotericism. Overall, Rosicrucians, Past and Present, at Home and Abroad is a fascinating and informative book that sheds light on one of the most mysterious and influential secret societies in history. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of esotericism, mysticism, and spirituality.We must remember that Rosicrucianism is no new thing but a revival of earlier forms of Initiation and is a lineal descendant of the Philosophies of the Chaldean Magi, Egyptian Priests, Hermetists of Alexandria, and of the Jewish Kabalists.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
