Swedenborg Rite and the Great Masonic Leaders of the Eighteenth Century by Samuel Beswick is a fascinating exploration of the Swedenborgian Rite of Freemasonry and its impact on the great Masonic leaders of the 18th century. The book delves into the life and teachings of Emanuel Swedenborg, the Swedish philosopher and mystic who founded the Swedenborgian Rite, and how his ideas influenced the likes of Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, and other prominent Masonic figures. Beswick provides a detailed history of the development of the Swedenborgian Rite and its place within the broader Masonic tradition, as well as an analysis of its philosophical and spiritual underpinnings. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of Freemasonry and the esoteric traditions that have shaped it.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.
