The Masonic Magician: the Life and Death of Count Cagliostro and his Egyptian Rite
by Philippa Faulks and Robert L.D. Cooper
Watkins 2017
Paperback, Illustrated
317 pages
Count Alessandro Cagliostro was a cult figure in European society in the tumultuous years leading to the French Revolution. As an alchemist, healer, and Freemason, he inspired both wild devotion and savage ridicule, becoming the subject of novels by Alexander Dumas, a drama by Goethe, and Mozart’s opera ‘The Magic Flute’. But Cagliostro’s sincere belief in the magical powers, even the immortality, of what he called the Egyptian Rite of Freemasonry made him dangerous enemies, too. In 1789, he was arrested by the Inquisition and condemned to death for heresy. Now, the discovery of a mysterious manuscript found in the Archives of the Grand Lodge of Scotland may shine a light on Cagliostro’s secret spiritual teachings, and allow us, finally, a full understanding of his beliefs. The Masonic Magician: the Life and Death of Count Cagliostro and his Egyptian Rite, tells Cagliostro’s extraordinary story, complete with the first English translation of the Egyptian Rite ever published. It presents the case made against him (that he was an impostor as well as a heretic), and finds that the Roman Church, and history itself, have done him a terrible injustice. This scholarly account, drawing on remarkable new documentary evidence, reveals that the man condemned was in fact a remarkable visionary and a true champion of Freemasonry – and that his teachings have much to reveal to us today.

Throughout time there have been many men and women who have altered the course of history and become legends. Some upset the religious power base of their day and brought with them ancient concepts seemingly at odds with the accepted norm.
Count Cagliostro was one of these men. He still remains an enigma hundreds of years after his demise at the hands of the Catholic Church. His very birth is a mystery, as too are his credentials. Hated by many, loved by more, Cagliostro is either a madman or a mystic.
Join Philip Gardiner and his guest Philippa Faulks, as they explore the world of this mysterious man we call Cagliostro.

Cagliostro – The Unknown Master
A Critical and Historical Study of High Magic
by ‘Dr. Marc Haven’ (Dr. Emmanuel Lalande)
Translated from the French by Paul Ferguson
Edited by Philippa Faulks
Foreword by Jonathan Black
Lewis Masonic
Paperback – illustrated
First published in French in 1912, this detailed and extensively referenced biography of one of history’s most enigmatic figures has the advantage of having been written by one of the early twentieth century’s leading esotericists, Dr. Marc Haven (real name Dr. Emmanuel Lalande).
Born in Lorraine in 1868, and trained as a medical doctor at the University of Paris, Haven (a close associate of the legendary Papus) brought all his scientific training and esoteric knowledge to bear on the mass of source material – often confused, sometimes contradictory, sometimes scurrilous, almost always hostile – which had accumulated around a man who, at various times and places, was described as a thief, an impostor, a philanderer and a charlatan.
The Cagliostro that emerges from these pages – deeply moral, courageous, witty, lovable, a healer of unparalleled talent, a skilful alchemist, an early champion of women’s rights, a reformer of Freemasonry and, above all, a true Christian – is far removed from the absurd diamond-encrusted charlatan of fiction and film. Haven’s meticulous analysis of the writings of those who knew the man on a day-to-day basis and his willingness to let him speak for himself in his own noble and powerful words, restore him to his rightful place as one of the truly great figures of Western esotericism as well as a man who, had he succeeded in two of his major projects – preventing the French Revolution and persuading the Roman Catholic church to embrace his Egyptian Rite – would have changed the course of history.
Paul Ferguson’s translation of Haven’s revised and corrected text is enriched with a short biography of the author, prefaces by Jonathan Black, author of The Secret History of the World and leading occult writer and Cagliostro expert Philippa Faulks (The Masonic Magician: The Life and Death of Count Cagliostro and his Egyptian Rite, Watkins 2008) and a list of English-language Internet sources. Anyone with an interest in 18th century social and cultural history will enjoy this book, as well as esotericists, Rosicrucians, Freemasons and anyone concerned to see one of history’s most maligned figures portrayed in his true light.
Paul Ferguson, comes from the Channel Islands and has spent most of his working-life as a translator for publication in the Benelux and Switzerland. He feels passionately that the wealth of Continental esoteric writings from the 16th century onwards is an essential part of our culture that needs to be made available to a wide audience in modern English translations. His most recent work include several translations from French, German and Latin for the alchemical scholar Adam McLean, treatises by Gerhard Dorn, and some of the less well-known Rosicrucian manifestos.
