A lot has been written about the Eleusinian Mysteries, even by respected professors and authoritative historians of religions, but few have truly understood the meaning of this extraordinary religious mysterical tradition. What almost all modern historians miss is the very survival and perpetuation of the Eleusinian Mystery Tradition. They even struggle to consider, in their studies and researches, the considerable period of time (sixteen centuries!) of uninterrupted activity of the Mother Sanctuary of Eleusis and its institutions (which absolutely makes it the most long-lived place of worship in human history). Therefore, we should not be surprised if they do not understand the dynamics of such survival and the enormous influence that the Eleusinian Mystery Tradition had during Humanism and into the development of the Renaissance, with its great artistic, architectural, scientific and literary expressions. An influence that has also determined most of the major historical events that took place in Italy and in Europe in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.
The Italian Renaissance was the main and most obvious show of force of this tenacious Tradition. In fact, that extraordinary season known as the Renaissance, shows Eleusinity and Mystery Tradition in all its various expressions: from Art to Literature, from Philosophy to Architecture to Science.

THE LEGACY OF
ASECRET KNOWLEDGE
The Eleusinian Mysteries through the barriers of time and space
The essay From Eleusis to Florence: the transmission of a secret knowledge1 by Nicola Bizzi is the largest and most complete study ever carried out on the Eleusinian Mystery Tradition, its origins, its history and life through the centuries, from the persecutions perpetuated by the Christians up to the Middle Ages, as well as from the Renaissance to our days.
A lot has been written about the Mysteries, even by respected professors and authoritative historians of religions, but few – actually very few – have truly understood the meaning of this extraordinary religious mysterical tradition, as the author clearly points out in the first volume of this huge editorial work. But the main news of this work by Nicola Bizzi, whose first volume was released in Italy in November 2017 and quickly became a bestseller, consists in the fact that for the first time in history a monumental work on the Eleusinian Mysteries has been written by one of its Initiate. And it was all fully authorized by the leaders of this institution. The author, in fact, is not only an appreciated historian but he also belongs, by family tradition and for more than thirty years of initiatory experience and path, to the Mystery Tradition of the Eleusinians “Mother”. The Eleusinians “Mother” are an ancient initiatory order which descends directly from the Primary Priestly Tribes of Eleusis. A feared and respected initiatory order, which later inspired many mysterical and esoteric traditions – such as the Pythagorean Order or the Freemasonry, up to the Illuminati of Bavaria. However, it has always remained strictly inaccessible and unreachable for the “profane” world. They have always been the purest and most authentic custodians and defenders of Eleusinian Orthodoxy. Defenders of a secret history and of the initiatory message of the Two Goddesses, the Mother and the Daughter (Demeter and Kore-Persephone). They have allowed this ancient Tradition to survive as it was, with its own rituals and its own secret knowledge. Indeed, only recently the Eleusinians “Mother” have decided to reveal themselves to the world, believing that this is the right time to make such a move.
The essay From Eleusis to Florence: the transmission of a secret knowledge (the Italian edition consists of three large volumes about almost 1000 pages each) combines historical accuracy and the revelation, for the first time ever, of several pages of hidden history and unpublished secret documents.
