FRATERNIS: Lost Books, Secret Brotherhood
The sequel to "2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk" ... The second book of "The Hidden History" trilogy...
"First, the women had lost their prestigious status; then the social order of equality had collapsed. [...] The Matrifocal society of the Early Neolithic had its own wisdom: The Mother Goddess Cult, which had been brutally supressed by the male-dominant kingdoms of the Bronze Age. The Patriarchy has been the disaster of the human civilization since the very beginning with its tendency to worship the power, violence, warfare and inequality. Justice and equality was replaced by the contradiction between the ruling classes and opressed masses; wisdom replaced by a bunch of male-dominant religions and bigotry; Mother Goddess was replaced by a wrathful, jealous, cruel Storm God. The particular movement that we can name as Fraternis, tried its best to resist to the assimilation process and re-establish the ancient rules of social justice for more than three thousand years."
"Fraternis: Lost Books, Secret Brotherhood" traces back the whole story of this long tradition from the Sibyls through the Pythagorean Brotherhood, Roman Republicans, Mithra elite, Julian (The Apostate), Mutazila of Islam, Bogomils, Cathars (The Albigenses), Knights Templar, Alumbrados of Spain, Rosicrucians and the Illuminati. The stunning history of a "counter-cult" who tried to change the route of the civilization but finally surrendered tragically in the early nineteenth century and eventually integrated into the "power elite empire" of the international finance-capital.
It's been a very long time since I last updated this site, due to a very heavy working period and also some technical problems. I even could not add the information about my latest novel, Sunset Fandango which was published in November 2007 in Turkey, by Inkilap Publishing.(Check the "Books" section in upcoming days, I'll add a brief information about this novel, which is the sequel to "Talismans Save Thee", very soon.)
The web site definitely needs a technical and design update (since the software I have been using has become out-of-date for quite some time) as well as a reorganized content, with new sections. Hopefully, beginning with this summer, my silence will end and more often updates with new content will begin to appear here. I also want to give some good news for the English language readers: I have been working on an English edition of "2012: Rendez-vous With Marduk" and if everything goes as planned, it will be ready to be published before September.
The old content is now archived and can be accessed through the "Archives" link on the main menu. Check back often for new and fresh updates.
This is probably one of the most important works on the nature and character of the American Revolution (1776) and its transformations in less than a quarter century. Namely, "The Counter-Revolution" which had "robbed" America's premier values and created a "military state" that had shifted towards the conservative and even reactionary concepts. The result is today's aggressive USA which has been used by the "Global Elite" forces of the international finance-capital empire. Larry Tise's ground shaking work reveals the true nature of the American Revolution of 1770's which was determined to keep on walking towards the liberty, equality and peace if the Counter-Revolution forces did not control it and changed the main route to a Christian, conservative, capitalist state.
