内容简介
英国伦敦大学学院意大利研究教授约翰·迪基到世界各地查阅共济会的档案资料，梳理了共济会自1717年创立以来至今300多年的历史，在详述共济会内部的会员等级、仪式、符号等之外，作者重点利用档案资料纠正人们多年对所谓共济会影响世界政治的误解，去除人们对共济会神秘性的各种猜测，如作者研究证实，共济会在法国大革命中的角色事实上是不存在的，是人为虚构出来的。另外，在梳理共济会历史的同时，作者也用一些篇幅描述了它的仇敌，如希特勒、墨索里尼等，力求呈现读者一部完整的共济会历史。

Content introduction
John Dickie, professor of Italian studies at University College London, visited the archives of Freemasonry around the world and combed the history of Freemasonry for more than 300 years since its founding in 1717. In addition to detailed membership levels, rituals, symbols, etc., the author focused on the use of archival materials to correct people's misunderstanding of the so-called Freemasonry's influence on world politics for many years. For example, the author's research confirms that the role of Freemasonry in the French Revolution is in fact non-existent and artificially invented. In addition, while sorting out the history of Freemasonry, the author also used some length to describe its enemies, such as Hitler, Mussolini, and so on, and strive to present readers a complete history of Freemasonry.
