Series: The Elus Coens Library

The definitive English translation of the Manuscript of AlgiersA new and unabridged translation of the surviving papers of Lt. Col. Pierre Andre de Grainville (1728-1794). De Grainville was an initiate of the enigmatic Martinez de Pasqually, the founder of the mysterious Elus Coens.

Having Progressed through the Order's ranks, de Grainville kept notes of his theurgical operations. Collectively known as 'les manuscrits de Grainville' or 'le manuscript d'Alger' where they are held at the Bibliotheque nationale de France (BnF), the folios are not a complete Coen grimoire, but an incomplete and fragmentary snapshot of the original rituals in a state of rapid development.

Included are both BnF folios FM4 1282 and FM4 1282A. Volume 3 in The Elus Coens Library collection. Colour with dust jacket.

M.R. Osborne is a writer, independent researcher and lawyer. He has published books and articles on esoteric subjects including Rosicrucianism, early Masonic organisation and occult symbolism. A member of the Societas Rosicruciana in Anglia (SRIA) and Director of Studies at Pythagoras College No.26, he edits the College Pamphlet Plus Quam Silentium. In 2018 he won the prestigious Order of the Companions of Christian Rosenkreutz (CCR) Award for a series of papers on 'The Lessons of Lyons of the Elus Coens'. He has written for the SRIA's Metropolitan Study Group, and Watkins Mind, Body and Spirit Magazine.He is best known for his scholarly introductions to Rose Circle's four-volume series of early Martinezist manuscripts. His research focus has centred on the composition of the original Elus Coens as a Catholic mystical fraternity. He contends that the goal of the order in attempting the reinstitution of the theurgy of the kohanim was doctrinally consistent with the Catholic faith to which its members subscribed.He regularly features in online podcasts and interviews, where he introduces his books and discusses the esoteric in general. A selection of the author's blogs are on available to read on Academia.The author first encountered Martinism and Rosicrucianism on a personal journey of Christian spirituality. In them, he discovered a fascinating philosophy of early science and theology maintained by hidden organisations almost entirely unknown to mainstream society. The author aims to shed new light on these topics by writing on Rosicrucianism, Martinezism, and related areas of research-for both newcomers and seasoned experts alike.
