Occultism: The Occult Sciences and the Occult Revival

Gothic Immortals

The Fiction of the Brotherhood of the Rosy Cross

by Marie Mulvey-Roberts

A literary study of the Rosicrucian adept in Gothic and Romantic fiction, from Godwin's St Leon and Shelley's St Irvyne to Bulwer-Lytton's Zanoni. It shows how novelists turned the legend of an immortal secret brotherhood into a vehicle for questions about knowledge, power and death.
