Rose City Books is honored to present this new edition of Augustin Barruel's, The Antisocial Conspiracy, the third volume from his History of Jacobinism.

Also included for historical reference is the 1798, British Critic (scholarly review of the third volume), plus single letters from Thomas Jefferson & George Washington, and five source images. Originally written in French, Barruel's massive authoritative work (four volumes in total) was completed in 1798. And the third volume was just making its way to the press (near the end of 1797), when Robison's Proofs of a Conspiracy was published. This third part details the hierarchy of the Bavarian Illuminati secret society, and its founder Adam Weishaupt.

Notă biografică

Augustin Barruel (1741 - 1820) was a prolific author and Jesuit priest born in France. He dedicated himself to literature after the suppression of the Society of Jesus and was exiled during the Revolution. While in London, he wrote Histoire du clergé, pendant la Révolution française (1793), which went through several editions and multiple translations, and strengthened British opposition to revolutionary principles. His best-known work, Mémoires pour servir à l'histoire du Jacobinisme (1797), established, along with John Robison's own book on the same subject, and Charles-Louis Garat de Gassicourt's on the Templars, the basis for the modern conspiracy theory of history. After the fall of the Directory, Barruel returned to France, where he defended the Napoleonic order. He ended his days engaged in a vigorous, Europe-wide controversy relating to his work, The Papal Power.
