About this Item
8vo 269pp. second printing. from front flap: "The "Rosicrucian manifestos' are mysterious documents published in Germany in the early seventeenth century. This book, by one of Britain's most distinguished Renaissance scholars, follows a new historical approach to them. Dr Frances Yates reveals that the manifestos were connected with movements stirred up by John Dee in Bohemia during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, and with contemporary movements in South Germany which culminated in teh short-lived reign of Frederick, Elector Palatinate, and his wife, the daughter of James I, as 'Winter' King and Queen of Bohemia. The reconstruction of this phase of European thought and history will take the subject of 'Rosicrucianism' out of the range of vaguely occultist studies and make it the concern of serious historians." #02307.
