Papus (Gerard Encausse)
playerOccult & Esoteric
One French occultist helped spread the idea that hidden 'secret masters' secretly run world politics.
Who they are
Gerard Encausse, known as Papus, a French occultist and the main follower of Saint-Yves d'Alveydre.
What they do
He spread the doctrine of Synarchy and the notion of hidden 'unknown superiors' guiding events from a hidden inner world, passing these ideas through European occult groups.
How it works
Through the occult societies he ran, he propagated the Synarchy and Agartha-emissary ideas, and he even influenced the young Rene Guenon.
Why it matters
The engine treats him as a relay point that helped package secret-hidden-rulers ideas into a political story that later occult movements carried forward.
