E 'release myths and rituals in traditional thinking , Gastone Ventura, edited by Stephen Moment. In this volume, including some already published work, but long out of print, and a brand new, taken from a conference in 1971, is the essence of the esoteric and traditional beliefs of Gastone Ventura. Beginning with the meaning of the word knowledge, in the spiritual sense of the term, which has nothing to do with the modern meaning of mass culture. Traditional knowledge - for Ventura - based on the universal principles of metaphysics, modern set against the knowledge, that the standardized disclosure, however, only analytical and exterior. Messages of Tradition is the thread that unites the texts collected in this volume. Messages that arrive through what defines Via Ventura Blood, inheritance, references to a bygone period, a particular state of consciousness, memory and thinking. Messages and re-veiled veiled and incomprehensible. Gastone Ventura nor does it address the study using the key elements of the Tradition: symbol and myth.
Masonic, finally, is the subject of a conference held in 1971 Gastone Ventura in Venice. A conversation on the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite, in which, thirty years later, we find elements are always present, but also an interesting reading historical and esoteric.

Gastone Ventura (1906-1981), a noble family of Parma, arrived in the Veneto during the Napoleonic era, lived in Venice.
Vice Admiral of the Italian Navy, was a journalist, critic, writer and, above all, fortunately for us, metaphysical researcher of deep honesty. Ventura
oriented his studies to the solution of historical and traditional issues, from the time of the first trips to Egypt, Yemen, India and East Africa.
His death has left a deep void in the international panorama of esotericism. Especially in Martin, and also in Freemasonry: he was in fact to awaken and lead the Ancient and Primitive Oriental Rite of Memphis and Misraim.
