 '''[[Samuel L. MacGregor Mathers]]''' was a British [[occultist]]. He is primarily known as one of the founders of the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]], a [[ritual magic|ceremonial magic]] order of which offshoots still exist. He became so synonymous with the order that Golden Dawn scholar [[Israel Regardie]] observed in retrospect that "the Golden Dawn ''was'' MacGregor Mathers."
-Mathers is credited with developing the ritual outlines in the mysterious [[Cipher Manuscripts]] into a workable format. This process led to the creation of the [[Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn]]. His translations of old [[grimoire]]s, while probably justly criticised with respect to quality, were responsible for making what had been obscure and inaccessible material widely available to the non-academic English speaking world. They have had considerable influence on the development of [[occult]] and esoteric thought since their publication, as has his consolidation of the [[Enochian]] magical system of [[John Dee]] and [[Edward Kelley]].
