SUMMARY:Swan Flight: The Third Heaven
DESCRIPTION:A celebration of the Quatercentenary of the 1624 great cipher manual\, Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae\, led by Peter and Sarah Dawkins in England\, and Heidemarie and Oliver Falldorf in Germany.  \nThis hybrid event will include a 3-day site visit in Germany to Wienhausen Abbey\, Celle\, Hitzacker and Luneburg led by Oliver and Heidemarie Falldorf (24-26 May)\, and a 1-day site visit in England to Kenilworth Castle led by Peter and Sarah Dawkins (25 May)\, with attendees choosing either one or the other. \nThe event will be introduced with a talk on Zoom by Peter Dawkins on Thursday 23 May (6pm UK time)\, explaining the whys and wherefores of the event\, plus a second talk on Zoom by Peter Dawkins on Saturday 25 May (7:30pm UK time)\, giving some background information about Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae and the secret society and intelligence networks involved. \nEnglish-German and German-English translations of talks will be available\, plus a follow-up Zoom meeting on 1 June 2024 to share experiences and discuss further things. \nCryptomenytices et Cryptographiae was compiled and written by Augustus ‘the Younger’\, Duke of Brunswick-Luneburg\, when he resided at Hitzacker\, before he became Prince of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel in 1635. He was closely linked with Francis Bacon in the Rosicrucian movement. Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae was published in Luneburg under Augustus’ pseudonym of Gustavus Selenus. \nCelle\, Hitzacker and Luneburg are located in the upper throat area of  the landscape Swan of Europe\, whose root is in Sardinia and crown is in Norway. \n2024 is also the Quatercentenary of Ben Jonson’s The Masque of Owls\, which was performed at Kenilworth Castle on 19 August 1624 for Prince Charles\, the surviving son and heir of King James I of England. Jonson was at that time still assisting Francis Bacon\, whom he revered\, and was a key player in the Rosicrucian fraternity. Not only is the owl an emblem of Pallas Athena\, but it also signifies secret or cryptic writing. \nKenilworth forms the beak of one of the two landscape Swans of Avon\, whose root or tail is marked by the Rollright Stones\, and whose head is marked by old Warwick town\, complete with a castle (Warwick Castle) overlooking the river Avon\, and the Collegiate Church of St Mary on its highest point. \nThis event forms part of the ‘Swan Flight through the Seven Heavens of the Rosicrucian Mysteries’ series\, which is enacting out the Dionysian Mystery in the Swan landscape temples of Europe. \nFor further details\, choices\, costs and booking\, see: \n\nSwan-Flight: Third Heaven pdf (English).\nDer dritte Himmel pdf (German).

SUMMARY:Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae\, intelligencers\, and Cryptology generally
DESCRIPTION:Talk on Zoom by Peter Dawkins\, giving some background information about Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae\, its author\, and the secret society and intelligence networks involved. \nThe great cipher manual\, Cryptomenytices et Cryptographiae\, was published in 1624\, the year immediately after the 1623 twin Folios\, Francis Bacon’s De Dignitate et Augmentis Scientiarum and the Shakespeare First Folio\, Mr. William Shakespeares Comedies\, Histories\, & Tragedies. \nCryptomenytices provides keys to the cryptology in the 1623 publications\, as also in many other publications of that time which were composed by members of the Society of the Golden and Rosy Cross. Indeed\, some of the ciphers appear to have been used\, suitably adapted and developed\, in the last two world wars\, and the fundamentals of Francis Bacon’s Biliteral cipher provide the foundation of all computer language we use today. \nThis talk is additional to the series of four talks originally designed and advertised for this year\, and in fact forms part of the The Swan Flight: The Third Heaven event\, during which Hitzacker\, on the river Elbe in Germany\, the place where Cryptomenytices was written\, and Lüneburg\, where it was published\, will be visited. \nSo\, for this reason\, this talk will be the second talk of the Rosicrucian Cryptography series this year\, and talk 7 of the whole Rosicrucian Mysteries series. \nFor further information and booking\, please contact the Organiser (FBRT). \nFor those who attend the talk\, there will be time for questions\, answers and insights after the talk. \n(This is Part 2 of the ‘Rosicrucian Cryptology’  series\, and Part 7 of ‘The Rosicrucian Mysteries’ series.)
