From Leonardo da Vinci to Bach - 12 Geniuses Inspired by Spirituality and the Rosicrucian Order

Extraordinary individuals such as Leonardo da Vinci, Paracelsus, Francis Bacon, Michael Maier, Kepler, Robert Fludd, Descartes, Pascal, Spinoza, Newton, Leibniz, and Johann Sebastian Bach were, each in their own field, "beacons of humanity."

While their works have been the subject of numerous studies, one aspect deserves particular attention: their interest in spirituality, which led them to connect with secret societies, traditional organizations such as the Rosicrucian Order, or to meet members of these organizations.

They thus gained access to unconventional knowledge for their time, knowledge that allowed them to become familiar with Hermeticism, alchemy, sacred geometry, astrology, and so on.

This knowledge undoubtedly influenced their minds, but also their writings, their music, their artistic creations, and their conception of medicine and science.

Alain Marbeuf, in this remarkably documented work, to which Guy Eyherabide and Mireille Guigou contributed, presents these twelve exceptional beings who opened new paths, transformed arts, sciences, and philosophy, and contributed, through their genius, to the evolution of humanity.
