He reveals events from the seventeenth century that led to the emergence of Freemasonry and other secret societies, as well as the hidden History of the creation of Theosophy in the nineteenth century and the conflicts that still reverberate today between the Anglo-Saxon and Germanic Occult streams..
Steiner then moves into the realm of Occult history, where he relates Theosophy to its historical ground in Western esotericism, especially Rosicrucianism.
