Dr. Oliver has been considered as the founder of what may be called the literary school of Masonry. He brought to the study of the Institution a significant amount of archeological learning and gave to Free-masonry a literary and philosophical character which has induced many succeeding scholars to devote themselves to those studies. His statements and conclusions, especially as to the origin or the history of the Order, should be received with caution. Yet, with this reserve in mind, no writer in the English language may have done so much to elevate the scientific character of Freemasonry. This present work introduces a comprehensive examination of the Mysterious in the context of modern Freemasonry. Here, Oliver sought to provide the history and practice of the major mystery cults from India, to Persia, to Greece, Britain and America. In so doing, he described them in considerable detail.
