Book excerpt: Although not widely used in the United States, the Scottish Rite (the largest Masonic system in the world) has a unique type of ritual which is used in more countries than any other. In 1870 Albert Pike, Grand Commander of the "Mother Supreme Council of the World," printed the ritual which he intended as a foundation for the Rite. To supplement the work he also prepared a Liturgy (guidebook). Very few copies of these works survive. This work includes everything that Pike prepared for these important rituals. The introduction treats the development of early Freemasonry, the rationale behind the high degrees, and the origins of the Scottish Rite. Also reprinted are several letters by Pike defending the sole right of the Grand Lodges over the Blue Lodge degrees. An appendix includes a first-ever translation of the original 1804 French Scottish Rite Blue Lodge ritual, which facilitates study of the development of the ritual and its symbolism.

Download or read book Life of Albert Pike c written by and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on with total page 662 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Life of Albert Pike, originally published in 1997, is as much a study of antebellum Arkansas as it is a portrait of the former general. A native of Massachusetts, Pike settled in Arkansas Territory in 1832 after wandering the Great Plains of Texas and New Mexico for two years. In Arkansas he became a schoolteacher, newspaperman, lawyer, Whig leader, poet, Freemason, and Confederate general who championed secession and fought against Black suffrage. During his tenure as Sovereign Grand Commander of the Scottish Rite—a position he held for more than thirty years beginning in 1859—Pike popularized the Masonic movement in the American South and Far West. In the wake of the Civil War, Pike left Arkansas, ultimately settling in Washington, D.C., where he lived out his last years in the Mason's House of the Temple. Drawing on original documents, Pike’s copious writings, and interviews with Pike’s descendants, Walter Lee Brown presents a fascinating personal history that also serves as a rich compendium of Arkansas’s antebellum history.

Download or read book The Book of the Words written by Albert Pike and published by . This book was released on 2018-08-28 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Masonry is permeated with powerful verbal and pictorial symbolism that arouses the mental, spiritual and intellectual life. One of the treasures of the SJ USA Supreme Council's Archives at the House of the Temple in Washington, D.C., is Albert Pike's manuscript of The Book of the Words. The book was originally printed, in an edition limited to 150 copies, in 1874. This remarkable study is an exploration of the symbolic words in Freemasonry. It gives the correct spelling of, and analyzes all the "significant words" in the Scottish Rite from the 1st through the 30th degrees inclusive. Pike explores and explains their origin (Hebrew, Samaritan, Phoenician and English), meaning, symbolism and relevance to the degrees and gives his insights. In addition to being an etymological dictionary Pike explains why any given word was chosen for a given degree, thereby revealing the hidden symbolism of each word.
