Synopsis

Sir Thomas More (1478-1535), venerated in the Catholic Church as Saint Thomas More, was an English lawyer, judge, social philosopher, author, statesman, theologian, and noted Renaissance humanist. A Rosicrucian initiate, according to Italian scholars Paolo Rumor and Diego Marin, he was affiliated with one of the most powerful and secret initiatory organizations of all time.More served Henry VIII as Lord Chancellor from October 1529 to May 1532, and is best known for writing Utopia, published in 1516, considered the first Rosicrucian manifesto, a work describing the political system of an imaginary island state, in which many have seen anticipations of the basic principles of modern Freemasonry.Sir Thomas More's Lady Fortune, often called The Verses of Fortune, dating back to the early 16th century, is a philosophical dialogue dramatizing human struggle against the "allure of Fortune's fleeting goods". The dialogue depicts Lady Fortune and a wise interlocutor discussing how to achieve true "happiness" by choosing "happy Poverty" and focusing on what "nature can support", rather than being influenced by wealth and power.In the opinion of many historians and literary critics, this work was likely intended as a preface to an early English version of a book on lottery, with the aim of advising readers not to take games of chance too seriously. Instead, it is a work with profound philosophical, ethical, and initiatory meanings.

    The Length of the Shackles On...

    Our contemporary societies let us believe that we are free—it is a delusion. We are still shackled in our chains, even in the West. Chains that we take for wings: we believe ourselves to be in a democracy, we think that work allows us to emancipate ourselves, and we imagine that new technologies facilitate our lives. This is our daily “Newspeak.”
    But oligarchy reigns. People are mired in consumerism and liberalism. Security control is more and more prevalent, while medical progress in procreation brings us closer to an “industrial fabrication of human beings.” In this context, we must question and rethink the conditions of a true human liberation.
    This is the work that Denis Collin has undertaken. Basing himself on numerous historical and philosophical references, he redefines the concepts and opens up new political, economic, social and metaphysical perspectives. The setting up of “partial associations” at all levels of political organization, the end of wage labor in favor of the cooperation of producers, the realization of man through his creative activity, the guarantee of the primacy of subjectivity in the face of scientism, are among the weapons intended to break our chains.
