"The author undertakes an investigation into the history of Russian Freemasonry that
has not been attempted previously. Her premise is that the Russian Enlightenment shows
peculiar features, which prevent the application of the interpretative framework commonly
used for the history of western thought. The author deals with the development of
early Russian masonry, the formation of the Novikov circle in Moscow, the 'programme'
of Rosicrucianism and the character of its Russian variant and, finally, the clash
between the Rosicrucians and the State. The author concludes that the defenders of
the Ancien Regime were not wrong."--BOOK JACKET
