Sinossi
Excerpt from A Library of Freemasonry, Vol. 3: Comprising Its History, Antiquities, Symbols, Constitutions, Customs, Etc;, And Concordant Orders of Royal Arch, Knights Templar, A. A. S. Rite, Mystic Shrine
Taylor rightly lays down that, when historical facts, which in their nature are fairly open to direct proof, are called in question, there is no species of trifling more irksome (to those who have no dishonest ends to serve) that the halting upon twenty indirect argu ments, while the centre proof - that which clear and upright minds fasten upon intuitively - remains undisposed of. Now, it must be freely conceded, that however strongly the balance of probability may appear to incline against the reception of Sir Christopher Wren, at any time of his life, into the Masonic fraternity, the question after all must remain an open one, as even his dying declaration to the contrary, were such extant, might be held insufficient to clearly establish this negative proposition.' Though until assertion is converted into proof, and that proof found to destroy the authenticity of the objections raised by me to the current belief, I shall rest content that the latter must, by every rule of good sense and right reason, and infallibly will, be regarded as adequate evidence by every competent judge.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of Freemasonry, focusing specifically on the period between 1688 and 1723. The author delves into the evolution of this ancient fraternal organization, examining its transformation from a primarily operative society of skilled stonemasons to a more speculative organization with a broader social and philosophical purpose. Through meticulous analysis of historical records, lodge minutes, and the writings of key figures, the author traces the emergence of Freemasonry's recognizable structure and rituals. By comparing and contrasting practices in England and Scotland, the author sheds light on the complex interaction of tradition, innovation, and cultural influences that shaped this evolving institution. The book probes the nature of historical evidence, challenging readers to consider the reliability of tradition and the limitations of available documentation. The author argues that a critical and discerning approach is crucial to understanding the early history of Freemasonry, especially during this period of significant change. This book offers valuable insights into the development of one of the world's most enduring and influential fraternal organizations. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
