Le chapitre caché est le point culminant de plus de vingt ans de recherche sur une collection de dessins géométriques et mathématiques qui avaient été autrefois en possession de John Byrom, un poète du XVIIIe siècle et jacobite secret dont la biographie Joy Hancox écrivait. Avec la mort de Byrom en 1763, les dessins avaient été mis de côté et leur signification a été négligée. Lorsque Joy Hancox a commencé à découvrir la signification et le but de 516 morceaux de papier et de carton comme ressource, il n'y avait que quelques érudits avec une compréhension quelconque pour l'éclairer et même ceux-ci ont offert différentes interprétations. Elle s'est donc lancée dans un voyage remarquable qui a complètement changé sa vie.
Au cours du processus, elle en est venue à croire qu'une quarantaine de dessins étaient concernés par le concept de design des maisons de jeu élisabéthaines, et a tracé le lien entre les dessins et le site des premières œuvres en laiton dans le royaume à Tintern, Monmouthshire. Les actionnaires de cette entreprise comprenaient des personnalités de premier plan liées aux sociétés d'acteur élisabéthaines et aux pièces de Shakespeare.
Avec l'aide supplémentaire de l'archéologie, du radar pénétrant le sol, de la documentation privée et du soutien local, Joy Hancox a découvert des aspects de l'histoire de Tintern et de ses environs qui ont longtemps été perdus ou oubliés. De nouvelles preuves de l'occupation romaine, la signification multicouche de la présence française normande et la puissance de l'aristocratie du XIXe siècle figurent tous dans une réévaluation de cette région du sud du Pays de Galles.
Le but du livre est de fournir des données factuelles, pour les érudits et tous ceux qui s'intéressent aux études hermétiques, aux maisons de jeu élisabéthaines, aux francs-maçons et aux templiers.

Présentation de l'éditeur
The Hidden Chapter is the climax of over twenty years of research into a collection of geometrical and mathematical drawings that had once been in the possession of John Byrom, an eighteenth century poet and secret Jacobite whose biography Joy Hancox was writing. With Byrom’s death in 1763 the drawings had been put to one side and their significance was overlooked. When Joy Hancox set out to discover the meaning and purpose of 516 pieces of paper and card as a resource, there were only a few scholars with any understanding to enlighten her and even these offered different interpretations. So she embarked on a remarkable journey that completely changed her life.
In the process she came to believe that some forty of the drawings were concerned with the design concept of the Elizabethan playhouses, and traced the connection between the drawings and the site of the first brass works in the kingdom at Tintern, Monmouthshire. Shareholders in this enterprise included leading figures connected with the Elizabethan acting companies and Shakespeare’s plays.
With additional help from archaeology, ground penetrating radar, private documentation and local support, Joy Hancox has uncovered aspects of the history of Tintern and the surrounding area that have long been lost or forgotten. New evidence of the Roman occupation, the multi-layered significance of the Norman French presence, and the power of nineteenth century aristocracy all figure in a reassessment of this area of South Wales.
The aim of the book is to provide factual data, for scholars and all those interested in Hermetic studies, the Elizabethan playhouses, Freemasons and Templars.

Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,

KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
