The book “On Occult Freemasonry and Hermetic Initiation”, highly valued by the founder of theosophical teaching E.P. Blavatsky, is one of the best works of Jean-Marie Ragon (1781-1862), an outstanding French symbolist, Freemason historiographer, “the most enlightened Freemason of the 19th century,” as Ragon was called by his contemporaries.
.This book, published for the first time in Russian, contains not only a theoretical part that sheds new, completely unexpected light on the origin, structure, philosophy, symbolism and rituals of the brotherhood of free masons, but also fragments of genuine Freemasonic initiations, which will be of interest not only to practitioners in esotericism for specialists, but also for a wide range of readers. A book for a wide range of readers.
