St. Germain was considered a mystic, philosopher, and master alchemist of the 17th century who held the key to immortality. Sightings of him after his death by high-profile, credible people added to the legend. This is the most rare and sought after work concerning his life. The author was able to procure documents unavailable to others, which thereby allows some of the mystery to drop away. Nowhere beyond this book will one find documents written in St. Germains own hand, providing proof of his whereabouts and concerns during certain parts of his life. The author does a great job tracing his movements between countries, revealing many mysteries and secrets that surround him.
The Count St. Germain was a man of mystery. An 18th century European aristocrat of unknown origin. He had no visible means of support, but no lack of resources, and moved in high social circles. He was a renowned conversationalist and a skilled musician. He dropped hints that he was centuries old and could grow diamonds. He never ate in public, was ambidextrous, and as far as anyone could tell, totally celibate. He served as a backchannel diplomat between England and France, and may have played some role in Freemasonry. He hobnobbed with Marie Antoinette, Catherine the Great, Voltaire, Rousseau, Mesmer, and Casanova. He dabbled in materials and textile technology as well as alchemy, as did m...
An updated edition of this classic biography - with a NEW FOREWORD by Solomon James.The Count of St. Germain, or rather the Comte de Saint Germain, is one of the most mysterious figures from eighteenth century Europe. By turns he was an aristocratic nobleman; a diplomat; a spy; a composer; or, as some like to claim - a charlatan. The fact that he never ate in public, or give credible sources for his background, education, and wealth, only adds to the mystery that surrounded the Comte de Saint Germain during his lifetime. Some saw him as an ascended Master, a wandering immortal, or as an emissary from the Great Brotherhood. In recent decades, with the popular rise of occultism and attendant N...
The original 'International Man of Mystery,' the Count St. Germain, was an 18th century European aristocrat of unknown origin. He had no visible means of support, but no lack of resources, and moved in high social circles. He was a renowned conversationalist and a skilled musician. He dropped hints that he was centuries old and could grow diamonds. He never ate in public, was ambidextrous, and as far as anyone could tell, totally celibate. He served as a backchannel diplomat between England and France, and may have played some role in Freemasonry. He hobnobbed with Marie Antoinette, Catherine the Great, Voltaire, Rousseau, Mesmer, and Casanova. He dabbled in materials and textile technology as well as alchemy, as did many intellectuals of the time (e.g., Newton). These are established historical facts, documented by the extensive collection of contemporary accounts in this book. He is a subject of interest for students of the esoteric.
The great Occultist and Brother of the White Lodge, the Count of Saint Germain, fragments of whose life are herein given, was the greatest force behind in the intellectual reforming movement which received its deathblow in the outbreak of the French revolution. Phoenix-like, it has rearisen, and it reappeared in the 19th Century as the Theosophical Society, of which this Great Brother is one of the recognized leaders. Still living in the same body the perennial youth of which astonished the observers of the 18th-century, He has fulfilled the prophecy made to Mme. d'Adh�mar that he would show himself again a century after his farewell to her, and, in the growing spiritual movement which is seen around us on every side, He will be one of the acknowledged Chiefs. Profoundly interesting, therefore, must be every detail that can be gathered of His eighteenth century life, and much is gathered here. ANNIE BESANT
