Synopsis

Webster lays out, in historical perspective, how secret societies and subversive movements have operated and controlled revolutions from behind the scenes. Webster writes that while many groups have been started to promote high values and seek knowledge, some become perverted by power-hungry individuals who see ways to exploit the world for their own benefit.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

A classic conspiracy book which argues that Bolshevism is part of a much older and more secret, self-perpetuating conspiracy, centred around the Bavarian Illuminati and Adam Weishaupt. The book begins by noting the role of the ancient secret tradition in various mystery cults which existed in ancient times. The book focuses particularly on the Jewish cabala (which Webster argues has been distorted by the Talmud, the Sephir Yetzirah, the Zohar, and other ancient texts). Webster next turns her attention to occultism, noting the presence of Satanism and Rosicrucianism, particularly as these relate to freemasonry. Webster also shows how freemasonry has actively conspired against throne and altar, particularly Continental masonry (though she denies the influence of malevolent elements to such a great extent within Anglo-American masonry). This is the definitive reference book on pre-1920s conspiracy theory.

Biographie de l'auteur

Nesta Helen Webster (Mrs. Arthur Webster), (24 August 1876 – 16 May 1960) was a controversial author who revived conspiracy theories about the Illuminati. She argued that the secret society's members were occultists, plotting communist world domination, using the idea of a Jewish cabal,[citation needed] the Masons and Jesuits as a smokescreen. According to her, their international subversion included the French Revolution, 1848 Revolution, the First World War, and the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. In 1920, Webster was one of the contributing authors who wrote The Jewish Peril, a series of articles in the London Morning Post centred on the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. These articles were subsequently compiled and published in the same year in book form under the title of The Cause of World Unrest. Webster claimed that the authenticity of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion was an "open question"
