Abstract:
Freemasonry was the most widespread form of secular association in eighteenth-century England, providing a model for other forms of urban sociability and a stimulus to music and the arts. Many members of the Royal Society and the Society of Antiquaries, for instance, were Freemasons, while historians such as Margaret Jacob have argued that Freemasonry was inspired by Whig Newtonianism and played an important role in European Enlightenment scientific education. This paper illustrates the importance of natural philosophy in Masonic rhetoric and utilizes material from Masonic histories, lodge rec

Abstract:
Mozarts Die Zauberflote stands as one of his masterpieces, characterized by a significant Freemasonic influence. Within the opera, the Queen of the Nights aria serves as a defining moment for the soprano singer. Portrayed as the mother of the heroine Pamina, she undergoes a transformation in her personality, transitioning from a loving mother to an evil one. This paper will delve into the elements of Freemasonry that shape her character, such as the inclusion of Egyptian motifs, the conflict between fatherhood and motherhood, and the rituals of the Freemasons. Furthermore, it will conduct a ps

Abstract:
The popular conception of the eighteenth century as The Age of Reason has perhaps obscured the values cherished by many people at the time. The strength of its ‘legitimist political movements’ is hard for a modern mind to grasp. Even harder is the ‘political fantasy’ of the ‘renewed empire’ prophesied by Virgil. But these ideas were very real to the eighteenth-century mind. To this must be added the sacred nature of the ancient Orders of Chivalry and their origins in the Crusades, as well as their connections with the Templars and ancient Freemasonry. All this must be taken into account when c

Abstract:
Abstract In his late writings, Jean-Philippe Rameau attributed mystical, almost divine qualities to the corps sonore, a fundamental element in his theory of harmonic generation. This article traces the use that Rameau made of the corps sonore in his stage works as part of a tradition of the oracular pronouncements in the French opera. In addition to using it to symbolize enlightenment, starting from the late 1740s Rameau used it to accompany the spells of the benevolent magicians who take the place of the deities of Classical mythology.

Abstract:
Au début du XIXe siècle, le paysage socio-politique européen est dominé par les bouleversements en provenance de France. Réagissant à ceux-ci, l’empereur Franz I restreint les libertés individuelles des sujets du Saint Empire Romain, tandis qu’au sein de l’aristocratie se trouvent au contraire des adeptes de l’Aufklärung, défenseurs de liberté et de tolérance. C’est dans ce contexte que Beethoven compose sa troisième symphonie en 1803-1804. Solomon (2004) a démontré que le compositeur a fréquenté sa vie durant des adhérents aux principes de l’Aufklärung, dont plusieurs francs-maçons. Des sym

Abstract If one were to visit a Masonic lodge, they might be surprised to find a piano or pipe organ, and a cabinet—likely coated with a layer of dust—containing old songbooks such as The Masonic Harp (1858) or Holden’s Sacred Music for Men’s Voices for Masonic Use (1893), which serve as artifacts of a largely bygone era of Masonic communal singing. From its arrival in the United States in the 17th century through the present day, Freemasonry has been compelled to respond to a shifting religious landscape in the United States and a continuing redefinition of masculinity itself.
