No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches across multiple scholarly and library catalogs (including local catalogs, Internet Archive, and OpenAlex) yielded no results for an English translation of Johann Christoph Wichmanshausen's 1687 Latin dissertation on the Templars. Given the obscure and specialized nature of this 17th-century academic work, it is highly probable that no English translation exists.

Johann Christoph Wichmanshausen investigates the murky end of the world’s most powerful military order, offering a provocative warning that the same 'Divine Nemesis' that felled the Templars may soon find the Jesuits.
