The Symbolism of Freemasonry
Illustrating and Explaining Its Science and Philosophy, Its Legends, Myths and Symbols
Description:... The Symbolism of Freemasonry by Albert G. Mackey, American doctor, author, and freemason, was originally published in the United States in 1882. The work outlines the history, evolution, and heritage of similar esoteric orders and groups, its origins in the Noachide, Eleusinian Cult, and Dionysian Artificers, but also takes a deep look into the complex web of symbolism that modern masonry draws upon. The work also has a handy synoptical index to bring clarity to much of the confusing terminology surrounding this arcane group.
