The Rosicrucian Enlightenment

TRAMA

"No one has done more than she to recreate, from unexpected material, the intellectual life of past ages. It is DrYates's great achievement to identify the ideas and, by delicate scholarship and profound study of symbolism, to provide them with a pedigree and a home. A brilliant and exciting book." -- Hugh Trevor-Roper," The Sunday Times"
