Between 1641 and 1620 begins in Europe what was called Rosicrucian
movement. The walls of Germany appeared with pamphlet and propaganda regarding
the three manifestos that came from the most brilliant minds of that time:
the Fama Fraternitatis, the Confessio and the Chemical Wedding. Against what the legend tells, these texts don’t born suddenly nor by chance written by just one man, but they reflect the spiritual aspiration of a group that takes the commitment with the current reality as far as possible. They are not dreams of altered minds or lies of mystifiers, but the echo of some men who, trying to make their voices heard, they propose a variation in the intellectual and spiritual ideas of that time, even though they keep apart observing the initiatic secret, which they respect at a high level because they know that its paths are not visible nor communicable. These scripts superpose the scheme of the contemporary facts to which they have to confront, in the hermetic sense. Those who take the written manifestos, did not do other thing but to recover some eternal symbols as vehicle of an hermetic thinking with alexandrine origin and renascent fermentation. The manifestos create an amazing controversy. It is a period of spiritual agitation, submitted to the influence of Luther and Calvin. Everybody is attentive to the heresy of his neighbor. The rebellion grunts in many hearts, but at the same time there is fear for the power of the Jesuits and the aggressive determination of the inquisition. The movement claims for an universal and general reform of all the world. This reform will take place through the union of the magic, the alchemy, the cabala and the progress in the scientific, medical and mathematical knowledge, and it requires the collaboration of the wise of all disciplines. It is possible that two persons closed to the rosicrucian circles, Michael Maier and Robert Fludd, had introduced the rosicrucian doctrine in England, presenting the rosicrucians as the successors of the egyptian colleges, the persian magician and the pythagorean. |
