[Freemasonry] - [Leprince de Beaumont, Mme]. - L'adepte moderne, ou le vrai secret des franc-maçons. Histoire intéressante. Londres, Imprimé cette année, Aux dépens de l'Auteur, [c.1755]. In-12 with wide margins (untrimmed), bound in 19th-century reused full vellum (notarized deed), smooth spine titled in red and decorated at the tail of the spine with the square and compass - [1 f. title], 229 pp. A novel with an alchemical theme, in which we discover that the main "philosopher" protagonist possesses the philosopher's powder (the stone) that transforms lead into gold. The whole plot, with its twists and turns, is an opportunity to highlight the moral qualities needed to accomplish the Work. Caillet n° 63 "There is no mention of the Freemasons in this volume; it's a novel about the transmutation of metals, whose title "Histoire intéressante" is accurate".
