    The Material Culture of Freemasonry:A Part of Things not a Thing Apart

    Get PDF
    Freemasonry is often seen as 'a thing apart' rather than 'a part of things'. This thesis applies well-established anthropological and sociological theories to the material culture of freemasonry, in particular Actor Network Theory. It establishes for the first time that this method binds freemasonry into the broader world of material culture and also provides unexpected insights into freemasonry itself.Centering the examination on my personal experience as Curator at the Museum of Freemasonry in London I consider how the collecting and display or failure to display objects used by, created by and commercially produced for freemasons provides insights in the round on how the material is regarded by society. The perceived secrecy of freemasonry is considered and I show that this is a contested and variable boundary between concealment and revelation. Most of the information needed to study the material culture of freemasonry is accessible to external researchers.I establish the nature of these objects and the way in which the inanimate material culture of freemasonry has innate properties that generate affect and agency on the freemasons and wider society. I show how this material culture is bound into the development of capitalism and consumerism from the early eighteenth century onwards. It forms the first and only continuous example of identity supporting material culture to arise ex nihilo and develop in parallel with the consumer society from the early eighteenth century. This has strong parallels with later material cultures reinforcing identity but is the paradigm and key point for comparison.I view freemasonry's material culture from different viewpoints, firstly its development and relevance to freemasons then establishing its relationship with the broader non-masonic world. I then de-contextualise it by examining its role as collectable giving the material a new agency not always related to its intended function or meaning.The thesis establishes for the first time that masonic material culture has a meaning and significance beyond the specifics of freemasonry studies. I show that a wide range of theories can be brought to bear on this topic and argue that there are multiple significant additional routes to study that have yet to be investigated.I conclude that the material culture of freemasonry is indeed 'a part of things' and if as researchers we fail to investigate the 'things' that freemasonry creates we lose a significant tool to investigate and analyse freemasonry as part of the wider social and anthropological world
