Some rather strange words from 'The Count of Monte Cristo', a work that reveals in the person of Edmond Dantes the philosophical vision of an inhuman avenging angel portrayed at times as a zenith of human perfection, a man apparently beyond good and evil, though Dumas does include dashes of somewhat unconvincing Christian sentiment to which Dantes ultimately supposedly surrenders. The effect of such pandering to literary expectation or society norms being to muddy the waters of the essence of the book.
"With the eyes fixed on the social organisation of nations, you see only the springs of the machine, and lose sight of the sublime workman who makes them act: you do not recognise before and around you any but those placemen whose brevets have been signed by the minister or the king; and that the men whom God has put above those titulars, ministers and kings, by giving them a mission to carry out, instead of a post to fill- I say that they escape your narrow, limited ken.
Because you remain eternally encircled in a round of general conditions, and you have never dared to raise your wing into those upper spheres which God has peopled with invisible or marked beings.
"And you allow then that such spheres exist, and that these marked and invisible beings mingle amongst us?"
"Yes...you see them whenever God pleases to allow them to asume a material form: you touch them, come in contact with them, speak to them and they reply to you."
Dumas, perhaps not so incidentally, was a Freemason; friends with Garibaldi, also a mason. In de Lampedusa's great novel The Leopard, it is taken as given that the unification of Italy was a product of the actions of Freemasons, which given Guisseppe Mazzini was a Grand Master of the Grand Orient of Italy is not too surprising.

Interesting, i'd read Il Gattopardo in Italian 7 years ago, must re-read it. Some interesting sado-masochistic scenes (re: sex dungeons, whips etc.) that are omitted from the English translation. Omissions are common but this seemed particularly guided by an agenda of some sort.
The Count is a great book, loose and indulgent but a true vision of the solitary genius figure descending upon society with misanthropic rage and erudition, fantastic stuff.
I read it a second time in translation recently, and the sado-masochism was more than hinted at all right, though I don't remember this from reading it some years earlier in a different edition. Lampedusa certainly seemed to be pointing to a darkness within the aristocratic culture- of previously at least- rather than simply mentioning this saucy area lightly.
As for Monte Cristo, it'smuch in the way of the tedious & ridiculous, but there's still a greatness to it, & a much stranger work than generally imagined.
Dumas wrote the Count of Monte Cristo as a code for the Jesuit Superior General whose order was banished to a small island (Corsica) and were forbidden to return. Like Edmond Dantes, The Order returned with thoughts of revenge, and in reality became more powerful. The book is also a code as to how the Jesuit Order took control of the financial systems in Britain and France using their Rothschild agents, the telegram story in the book being symbolic of the intell network of the Jesuits).
Dumas knew that the Jesuit Order were behind The French Revolution and the Napoleonic wars (and choosing the Corsican Napolean to head their mission was symbolic of the Jesuit Orders return from Corsica!) In Napoleans memoirs he said “The Jesuits are a MILITARY organization, not a religious order. Their chief is a general of an army, not the mere father abbot of a monastery. And the aim of this organization is power – power in its most despotic exercise – absolute power, universal power, power to control the world by the volition of a single man [i.e., the Black Pope, the Superior General of the Jesuits].
Jesuitism is the most absolute of despotisms – and at the same time the greatest and most enormous of abuses…”
In 1717 the Jesuits revived freemasonry, wrote the first twenty-five degrees of freemasonry in the College of Claremont in Paris. Later when they were protected by Frederick the Great during their suppression in the 1780's they wrote the last eight degrees, set up the supreme council of thirty-third
degree and imported the French revolution into France via the Grand orient Lodge in Paris.
he French Revolution, the Jesuits and masonry all are working together, which brings us to the French revolution.
Why the French revolution? Because the French had kicked out the Jesuits, Louie XIV expelled them (sparked off by a dispute over businesses the jesuits were running), Portugal under Joseph III expelled them in 1759 (for alledgedly plotting to kill the king among many other crimes), Spain expelled them 1767 under Charles III. The most powerful Catholic monarchs in the world expelled them and demanded that the Pope suppress them. So in 1773 Pope Clement XIV suppressed the Jesuits FOREVER with a Papal Bull, Domonic acre demptom Nostrum, and so Maria Teresa, the Hapsburg Queen, expelled them from Austria.
The Jesuits goes underground. Frederick the Great, the most powerful freemason on the continent protects them. They then import the French Revolution into France and what do they do, they kill Louie XVI and behead him. He's the bourbon King, the grandson of Louie XVI, they behead Marie Antoinette, and she's the Hapsburg Queen, the daughter of Maria Theresa. This is payback for Maria Theresa.
They brought Pope Pious VI over the Alps and he died, and Pious VII Poped them after that Napoleon imprisoned him for five years, remember Napoleon was referred to Robusfear on horseback. So the Jesuits used Napoleon Bonaparte, a high level freemason, to punish all their enemies. They use Napoleon to punish all the monarchs. They drive the Borganases out of Portugal into exile. They drive the Bourbons' out of Spain into exile. They behead Louie XVI, the Bourbon French king, they imprison Pious VII. They drive The Knights of Malta off the island because they had expelled the Jesuits in 1768.
They used Napoleon as their hammer. His advisor was a Jesuit whose name was Abby Siez.
He was the second console on the consulate and he advised Napoleon what to do and where to go. The victories of Napoleon were the Jesuits organizing the victories on his side and the defeat of his enemy, that's why he succeeded until 1812.
After the French revolution the Jesuits were revived by Pope Pious VII in a papal bull and from then to the present day they control the Vatican, and the Knights of Malta, and the other powerful religious Orders. The interesting thing at this time though is that of the Napoleonic wars the Jesuits got control of England through King George III, so the Jesuits were in control of Protestant England. George III resisted Napoleon (after the jesuit order had finished their purpose for him). So after Napoleon is exiled to Elba, the Congress of Vienna is quarreling and so he's brought out of retirement, he leads an army. It's called the hundred days and he deliberately sacrifices all the patriots of France at Waterloo because he attacks the wrong point. He should have attacked at Mt. St. Jean according to Stonewall Jackson when he visited the battlefield.
So Napoleon sacrifices his armies, kills many French patriots (who were strongly opposed to the Jesuit Order) and France is put back under Louie the XVIII who is a tyrant and a dictator who reinstitutes the Jesuits. Mission Accomplished.
Further to my post highlighting the meaning of the Count, representing the Jesuit Superior General, and their tool Napoleon working to attack their enemies, you might wonder why Napoleon sacrificed his armies in the 1812 war in Russia.
You will recount Tolstoys narration that Napoleon's deliberate retreat from Russia, sacrificed his army. Tolstoy could not figure this out. Napoleons soldiers thought they were fighting the monarchs of europe. Once Napoleon had fulfilled his purpose his armies had to be mass-slaughtered to permit the coming Jesuit conspiracy against the development of free nations in post French-revolutionary europe, so that there are very few patriots left in Europe to resist the tyranny coming in France with Louis XVIII, whom the Jesuits, put back on the throne. Napoleons army succeeded in wiping out the Jesuits enemies, they gained control of europe and the Vatican (imprisoned the Pope for 5 years as revenge for his supression of their order), the war with Russia succeeded in destroying Russian Orthodox heretics (whom the Jesuits hate), and the burning of Moscow (it is often mistakingly claimed the russians burned Moscow, but Napoleon gave that order to his soldiers) as revenge for their oppression.
So after the Jesuits got their revenge and took total control of the monarchs in Europe, the Jesuits re-introduce the monarchies again, but first the revolutionaries had to be slaughtered, thats why Napoleons army was slaughtered (same reason Hitlers amry was slaughtered). And all the monarchs of the world, including the British monarch who was under their control, was thought a lesson by the Jesuits, that any of them who oppose the Jesuit Orders control and supremacy will be removed, the Jesuits gave an illustration to the world leaders that they were more powerful than any of them.
Actually to draw a parallel in the modern era, JFK's death was also a message to all other world leaders that if you attempt to oppose them, they can eliminate you in broad daylight and on tv for all the world to see, yet none of the perpetrators will be charged, yet alone punished, and if they can do it to the President of the most powerful country, they can do it to anyone.
You highlight that Dumas was a freemason, and he knew Napoleon was a member of the Grand Lodge of Paris
I could have also added, if anyone is in any doubt as to the accuracy of the claims that Napoleon was working for the Jesuits, then any research into the subject will find you answers, but particularly search the name of the Jesuit Abbe "Emmanuel Joseph Sieyès", and you will no doubt realise that the French Revolution was entirely manipulated for the benefit of the Jesuit Order. And in fact is impossible to understand the true purpose of Napoleon without taking into account of the expulsion of the Jesuits from Roman Catholic Portugal (1759), Roman Catholic France (1764), Roman Catholic Spain (1767), Roman Catholic Malta by the Knights of Malta (1768) and the formal Bull of Suppression and Extinction of the Society of Jesus by Pope Clement in 1773. Roman Catholic Austria then expelled the Order in 1774. Meanwhile the Order had been expelled by Peter the Great in 1723 which invasion by Napoleon and the burning of heretic Christian Orthodox Moscow was a payback.
Every move Napoleon made in the subjugation of his enemies, until his deliberate sacrifice of his army in the snows of Russia, benefitted the Jesuit Order.
The truth of European history is never told in schools, universities, or in the mainstream newsmedia
the british crown was not taken during the Napoleonic war, it was taken during the 1688 glorious revolution. ironically enough it was the last time a catholic monarch was on the throne of England, it didn't matter the guy who took over William of orange called himself a protestant but ever since that time, England was in the hands of the Jesuits.
the Jesuit suppression happened because they wanted it to happen. they focused all their efforts on creating the united states, with Lorenzo ricci faking his death and arriving in America sometime around 1775. George Washington was the face of Jesuitism in America and died on his deathbed a catholic after confessing to a Jesuit priest.
All of this sounds interesting to some extent however how is it possible that this one fraternal order has managed to control & manipulate the world for centuries !? I mean what is so special/different about this particular group ?! Are we expected to think that this group is so much more capable/wise/clever/ than any other & has managed to steer the course of life of the entire mass population of the world ?!
Where exactly does all this "historical" information about the Jesuits/masonry come from ?! How do we know that's it's truthful/accurate ?! Are we excepted to think that this one fraternal order has steered the course of humanity for centuries ?! What is so special & different about this one particular group ?! Are they wiser/cleverer/more devious than any other group ?!

Hi Enlite, all I did was quite directly from the novel those pretty strange words, and relate that Dumas was a Freemason. You can do what you want after that, research or don’t research or whatever you like!
It’s too broad for me to go deep into but it is accepted as simple fact for instance that freemasonry and such related secret societies have been deeply embedded within society for along time. For example the US presidential election between George W Bush and John Kerry - both of them were members of the Skull and Bones secret society at Yale. We shouldn’t be accepting such stuff as somehow normal and to be ignored. That’s just mentioning one fact, but again the whole issue is too huge for me to hope to answer yiu here on how you are to take it all!
I'm not saying that fraternal orders/groups don't exist but simply questioning the notion of one overarching group controlling/manipulating everything/everyone & it's a lot more likely that , multiple groups with the same agendas are running the show !
I think I’d probably agree with you there, Enlite! Lots of complex threads but united in essence perhaps.
