History Of The Rose-Croix Sedir - Ordo Svmmvm Bonvm

the austerity of manners, charity, justice, affirming that only a holy life allows the input in the
human heart of the Holy Spirit which links the man with God and confers its gifts to him. They
included in their preaching the teaching of Paul saint on the old man who must be crucifié with
Christ for ressusciter with Christ. Andreae travelled by all Europe and the experiments
which it made during these tours confirmed it in its decision to await only virtue of the Gospel
the execution of its generous plans of moral and social reform. During the Thirty year old
war, the town of Calw where it had been appointed deacon was destroyed. It was untiring
in the creation of charity organizations and was lavished to its fellow-citizens with an
admirable devotion. Under the title of Theophilus, published into 1649, it joins together in
three dialogues a remarkable program of renewal, of conversion for its Church. And, when
appeared the first proclamations of the Rosicrucian brotherhood, it published the Weddings
Chymiques de Christian Rosencreutz. Who composed Fama and Confessio? This
question made run much ink throughout these three centuries and half. II appears certain that
these two writings are not the work of a single author. They express the ideas and the
hopes of a community. Gottfried Arnold, in his Kirchen- und Ketzerhistorien (32), affirms that
Jean Arndt would have revealed with his friend Christophe Hirsch, theologist of reputation,
that Jean-Valentine Andreae and thirty other people of the country of Wurtemberg would
have composed Fama and would have published it in the hope to learn, by the means of
this poetic fiction, if there existed, dispersed in Europe, of the hidden friends of the true
wisdom, who could then appear. In addition, the style and the language of Fama and
Confessio are different from the style and the language of the known works of Jean-
Valentine Andreae, in particular of the Chymiques Weddings of which itself asserted
paternity. Many names of authors were proposed. The question is far from to be solved
*** the Reformation, Fama, Confessio, as well as the Weddings Chymiques de Christian
Rosencreutz are the only original written demonstrations of the Rosicrucian brotherhood.
They are the first works where the name of Fraternity is found. These writings, mainly Fama,
were often reprinted and represented. They had an extraordinary repercussion. Quantity of
beings, the patients, of anxious, launched towards Fraternity the call of their distress and
their hopes. Others shouted with imposture and the heresy. The promise of a remedy
removing the disease, of a life being prolonged without end, of a single book containing all
the science of the world raised the fury of the doctors and the philosophers. One of the
immediate results of the appearance of Fama was, in addition, to cause a crowd of
charlatans who were given like members of Fraternity, promised marvellous cures and
alchemical secrecies, and could never but ruin the health and the fortune of naive which
believed their hâbleries. Three of these adventurers, in Wetzlar, Nuremberg and
Augsburg, pushed so far the audacity which secular justice was moved and which one of
them was hung. (23) Fludd fades certain people who usurped the title of Rosicrucian
