Pernety and the Mystical International - Paul Ferguson - 03-01-2025

Chapter 5 of "Respectable Folly: Millenarians and the French Revolution in France and England". Johns Hopkins University Press, 2019. Project MUSE. https://dx.doi.org/10.1353/book.67841

"Pernety gradually assembled a circle of followers in Berlin. At his instigation, they launched what one historian has called "a sort of religion of the occult, a mixture of casuistry, ecstasy, astrology, cabalism, and alchemy." Pernety's circle acquired two protectors: an angel named Assadai, who Pernety said aided him in his work; and Prince Henry, brother of the king."
