The History of Martinism and the F.U.D.O.S.I"". is a compilation from the work ""Gechiedenis van de occulte en mystieke Broederschappen"" by Marcel Roggemans. ( ISBN 978-90-9023400-7 ) This partial translation of his work, with supplementary annotations and research by the translator Milko Bogaard, provides a historical summary of the history of France and Belgium during the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th Century.
In this small volume an attempt has been made together the best and most reliable of the sets of Ethical Verses attributed to the Pythagoreans. Both Hall's translation from the Greek (1657), and Rowe's translation from the French of Andre Dacier (1707), have been used in reproducing the Golden Verses of Pythagoras, but Dacier's version has been almost exclusively followed, being clearer and more intelligible. The Golden Sentences of Democrates, the Similitudes of Demophilus, and Pythagorean Symbols are from Bridgman's translation, and are to be found in his little book, Translations from the Greek, published in 1804. The Pythagorean Sentences of Demophilus, translated by Taylor, are contained in that volume also. The remaining sets of verses, translated by Taylor, are appended by him to his Iamblichus' Life of Pythagoras, published in 1818.
The idea of light and darkness is one of the central ideas of the Symbolist movement, since this is a movement of contrasts. It encompasses the major themes of Symbolism, such as good and evil, beauty and ugliness, the visible and the invisible, and the divine and the earthly. This volume brings together a range of studies in order to understand the notion of light and darkness and a variety of its Symbolist interpretations. It also stresses the interdisciplinary nature of the concepts of light and darkness in Symbolism, as well as the cohabitation and symbiosis of both, which are together or separately at the core of this movement.

Der Autor verfolgt die Rezeption der griechischen Philosofie von der Antike bis zur Neuzeit. Während nach dem Sturz des West-Römischen Reiches und dem Aufstieg des Christentums, die antiken Ideen als heidnisch und ketzerisch verfolgt wurden (Verbot der Olympischen Spiele, Einäscherung der Alexandrinischen Bibliothek), wurden sie, im Gegenzug, von Persern und Arabern übernommen und weiterentwickelt. Nach deren Wiedereintritt im Hochmittelalter über Spanien (Kordoba, Toledo) nach Europa, führten sie zur Gründung von Universitäten und Akademien. Die Ideengeschichte der Neuzeit beginnt mit dem Einsetzen der Kreuzzüge und dem Auftauchen der Templer in Jerusalem. Was hatten sie dort zu su...
Nach 14-jähriger Forschungsarbeit vermittelt Markus Osterrieder hier ein umfassendes Verständnis des Ersten Weltkriegs. Es ergeben sich ganz neue Zusammenhänge und Erkenntnisse zur Politik der beteiligten Kriegsmächte, zu ihren Motiven und geheimen Zielen. Ergänzt durch die scharfsichtigen Analysen Rudolf Steiners, zeigen sich die tieferen Ursachen des Ersten Weltkriegs in ihren tragischen und weitreichenden Konsequenzen. Zu Recht gilt der Erste Weltkrieg als Urkatastrophe des 20. Jahrhunderts. In den Folgen der von ihm eingeleiteten Umbrüche lebt die Menschheit noch heute. Rudolf Steiner verglich diese Zäsur mit dem Untergang des Römischen Reiches; er wies darauf hin, dass durch den...
