Hargrave Jennings' 1870 work joins the debates of the nineteenth
century that sought to determine the relationships between modern
science, religion, and the supernatural. A prolific writer and an
occultist, Jennings (1817 1890) had previously published on the
religions of India. He spent two decades researching and writing
this work, which is the first history in English of the
Rosicrucians. As he states, his 1858 Curious Things of the Outside
World first asserted the ideas he elaborates in this text, and he
is not a member of the Rosicrucian sect, simply a historian of it.
This was his best-known book, in which the discussion extends to
the Kabbalah, Gnosticism, the Druids, and ancient and medieval
cultures; five editions were subsequently printed, and it was
translated into German in 1912. It will interest scholars of the
history of ideas, of the relationship of science and magic, and of
the occult.
