Description

Explore the hidden connections between occult traditions and literature with Gothic Immortals (Routledge Revivals): The Fiction of the Brotherhood of the Rosy Cross. Originally published in 1990, this work stands as the first full-length study of the specific group of novels known as Rosicrucian fiction. This book traces the development of a unique literary genre, revealing how a continuous occult tradition flows through various texts. Starting from the Enlightenment, the author examines how the physician's secular approach to eternal life, longevity, and physical decay influenced writers such as William Godwin. By focusing on the bodily immortality of the Rosicrucian hero, this study provides a deep look into the themes and evolution of these works. It is an essential resource for readers interested in literary theory, history, and the intersection of mysticism and fiction.
