Swedenborg Rite and the Great Masonic Leaders of the Eighteenth Century by Samuel Beswick is a comprehensive study of the influence of Emanuel Swedenborg and his teachings on the development of Freemasonry in the 18th century. The book explores the history and philosophy of the Swedenborg Rite, a Masonic order that was heavily influenced by Swedenborg's theological writings. Beswick delves into the lives and contributions of prominent Masonic leaders such as Carl Friedrich Eckleff, Jean-Baptiste Willermoz, and Martin�����s de Pasqually, who played significant roles in the development of the Swedenborg Rite and the wider Masonic movement. The book also examines the relationship between the Swedenborg Rite and other Masonic orders, such as the Scottish Rite and the Order of the Temple. Through meticulous research and analysis, Beswick provides a detailed account of the Swedenborg Rite's history, rituals, and symbolism, as well as its impact on the wider Masonic community. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Freemasonry and the influence of Swedenborgian thought on the development of esoteric traditions in the 18th century.Contents: Swedenborg's Initiation at Lund; Royal University to Royal College of Mines; Travels�������Visits to Lodges; How the Rite began; Swedenborgian Masons the Great Leaders of the Eighteenth Century; Duke Charles, Grand Master of Germany, King Gustavus III of Sweden, Prince Charles of Sweden, Grand Commander of Scottish Rite; Cardinal Prince de Rohn, Grand Commander of Scottish Rite in France; Count A.J.
