Publisher's Synopsis
""Freemasonry and the French Revolution"" is a historical book written by Arthur Edward Waite. The book explores the role of Freemasonry in the French Revolution, which was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France during the late 18th century. Waite delves into the origins and history of Freemasonry, its impact on the intellectual and cultural climate of the time, and its involvement in the events leading up to the French Revolution. The author also examines the relationship between Freemasonry and the Enlightenment, a philosophical movement that emphasized reason and individualism, and how this influenced the revolutionary ideals of liberty, equality, and fraternity. Waite's book provides a comprehensive analysis of the complex relationship between Freemasonry and the French Revolution, shedding light on a fascinating and often misunderstood period of history.THIS 60 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Secret Tradition in Freemasonry, by Arthur Edward Waite.
