2011 Reprint of 1906 Edition. Full facsimile of the original edition, not reproduced with Optical Recognition Software. Fully describes the first three degrees of the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. Pike is best known for his major work, "Morals and Dogma of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry," originally published in 1871.

This is Albert Pikes' volume of 'lectures' on the esoteric roots of Freemasonry, specifically the 32-degree Scottish Rite. Until 1964, this book was given to every Mason completing the 14th degree in the Southern jurisdiction of the US Scottish Rite Freemasons. Masonic lectures are standard oral presentations given during initiation to a new degree. Lectures provide background material for initiates and the discuss duties of the degree in general terms.

The teachings of these Readings are not sacramental, so far as they go beyond the realm of Morality into those of other domains of Thought and Truth. The Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite uses the word Dogma in its true sense, of doctrine, or teaching; and is not dogmatic in the odious sense of that term. Everyone is entirely free to reject and dissent from whatsoever herein may seem to him to be untrue or unsound. It is only required of him that he shall weigh what is taught, and give it fair hearing and unprejudiced judgment. Of course, the ancient theosophic and philosophic speculations...

Albert Pike was a Harvard dropout, Confederate general, lawyer for Native American causes, celebrated Masonic leader, and lifelong writer of poems. Erudite in many languages and expert on folklore and mythology, his work "Morals and Dogma" continues to be a major text in the Scottish Rite of Freemasonry. Despite his insistence that he was not the author, the much-reprinted poem "The Old Canoe" continues to be attributed to him and figures in this volume of his verses.

Questo testo, pubblicato nel 1872 dal Sovrano Gran Commendatore del Supremo Consiglio della Giurisdizione Sud degli Stati Uniti di Charleston, Albert Pike, e un documento importante per "rovistare" sull'origine e la nascita del Rito Scozzese Antico ed Accettato... Pike esamina e raccoglie i vecchi documenti personali dei vari protagonisti e fondatori del nuovo Rito Scozzese Antico ed Accettato, innestatosi sulla tradizione e sui gradi del Rito di Perfezione proveniente dalla Francia o, nella migliore delle ipotesi, dall'Oriente di Berlino. E' una raccolta preziosa di documenti che sono...
