First published in 1990, this book represents the first full-length study of into the group of novels designated Rosicrucian and traces the emergence of this distinct fictional genre, revealing a continuous occult tradition running through seemingly diverse literary texts. Taking the Enlightenment as a starting point, the author shows how the physicians secular appropriation of the idea of eternal life, through the study of longevity and physical decay, attracted writers like William Godwin. It focuses on the bodily immortality of the Rosicrucian hero and investigates the novels of five major writers Godwin, Percy Bysshe Shelley, Mary Shelley, Maturin, and Bulwer-Lytton.
