Publisher's Synopsis

Secret Societies of the Middle Ages is a historical book that explores the mysterious and often secretive organizations that existed during the medieval period. Written by an anonymous author, the book delves into the practices and beliefs of various secret societies, including the Knights Templar, the Illuminati, and the Assassins. The author examines the origins and evolution of these groups, as well as their influence on politics, religion, and culture. The book also includes discussions on the myths and legends surrounding these societies, as well as their lasting impact on society today. Secret Societies of the Middle Ages is a fascinating read for anyone interested in the history of secret societies and their role in shaping the world we live in today.1848. If we had the means of investigating historically the origin of Secret Societies, we should probably find that they began to be formed almost as soon as any knowledge had been accumulated by particular individuals. The same thing has happened to knowledge that has happened to all other human possessions, its actual holders have striven to keep it to themselves. The book contents are divided into three sections entitled: The Assassins; The Templars; and Secret Tribunals of Westphalia.
