Book Synopsis
"This is a truly beautiful piece of work, which really makes Pasqually come to life and brings his beliefs through clearly. This has not been done previously." Dr. Matt Fletcher, Sovereign Grand Master of the Allied Masonic Degrees of Canada"Readable, while still poetic, Osborne has done a masterful job of translating a book that is frequently difficult but worth reading each and every word of."

The 'Treatise on the Reintegration of Beings' of Martinez (Martinés) de Pasqually (c.1727 - 1774) was only partially completed at the time of his death. Pasqually intended this critical work of eighteenth-century esoteric cosmogony to be a complete commentary on the first five books of Genesis, and that which we have was composed during the period when de Grainville, Fournié and Saint-Martin were his personal secretaries.
Like his contemporary Emmanuel Swedenborg, Dom Martinez is said to have experienced dreams and visions of spiritual realms and the multiplicity of beings inhabiting them. The themes we encounter in the Treatise inevitably include elements of spiritualism and strong alchemical and Rosicrucian principles. This translation incorporates all known key manuscripts, including an in-depth introduction by M.R. Osborne and a foreword by Dr. Matt Fletcher.

Review Quotes
"I applaud the author of this translation and version of the Treatise, for he has done that which has not been done previously. Pasqually's lack of grammar and punctuation, and the archaic nature of the French language usage, results in a book which is difficult to penetrate and hard to understand by many. This version is different as it brings the language of the Treatise into modern parlance and presents the fundamental principles clearly and understandably. The meaning shines through in a far more accessible fashion, and Pasqually's philosophy comes to life on the pages of this book." Sebastian Shaw, Amazon Review
