Les Élus Parfaits - Alain Bernheim - Bog

This second volume of letters takes us into the everyday life of the Lodges of Elect in the 18th Century in Toulouse and New Orleans. It also includes some fascinating testimonies of French Masonic life in the period of its total submission to Napoleonic rule. Etienne Morin's existing letters, as published in 1958 by N. Choumitzky in St Claudius, are here translated by Joseph Wages. We thought that we ought to re-examine, complete, correct and translate into English the index of names originally made by Gerry Prinsen for the Latomia edition. Many additions have been made, many more, no doubt, would have been necessary. That work is still in progress.>Ce que nous possedons de la correspondance d'Etienne Morin publiee en 1928 par N. Choumitzky dans la revue St Claudius figure a la suite sous forme bilingue dans une traduction de Joseph Wages. I1 nous a paru necessaire de reprendre et de traduire en anglais l'index des noms elabore par Gerry Prinsen pour l'edition Latomia en le completant, l'amendant et le corrigeant quand il le fallait. De nombreuses donnees ont ete ajoutees, sans aucunement pretendre a l'exhaustivite. Ce chantier reste ouvert et evolutif.
