Commentary


Devise religieuse et emblème bizarre. Peut-être jeton franc-maçon ? La Maçonnerie à son origine se cachait sous des formes religieuses. Ce fut seulement en 1725 que la première loge fut établie par Lord Bervent-Water et le chevalier Malkeline, mais dès 1675 des Frères et amis se réunissaient déjà en France comme à l'étranger. Il ne s’agit probablement pas de jetons franc-maçonnique mais le fait de maintenir ces jetons dans ce catalogue permet de comprendre l’aboutissement vers la franc-maçonnerie. En effet, cela illustre le fait que le désir et ou la nécessité d’appartenir à confrérie, association ou corporation était bien antérieur au développement de la franc-maçonnerie, notamment en région parisienne. De là à trouver les racines de la franc-maçonnerie dans ces confréries nécessiterait une étude plus approfondie.
Religious motto and bizarre emblem. Perhaps a Freemason token? Masonry originally hid behind religious guises. It was only in 1725 that the first lodge was established by Lord Bervent-Water and Chevalier Malkeline, but by 1675, Brothers and friends were already meeting in France and abroad. These are probably not Freemason tokens, but the fact that these tokens are included in this catalog helps us understand the path to Freemasonry. Indeed, this illustrates the fact that the desire and/or need to belong to a brotherhood, association, or corporation long predated the development of Freemasonry, particularly in the Paris region. Finding the roots of Freemasonry in these brotherhoods would require further study.

Historical background


FREEMASONRY

The compass and the square are very often associated in an ambivalent symbol of balance: fixity and mobility, passive and active, matter and spirit.. The compass is the tool of the Creator and of the great Architect of the Universe. The spacing of the branches of the compass obeys precise rules and varies according to the three degrees: apprentice, companion, master. The Napoleonic era, in the activity of lodges as in that of many groups, saw a flowering after the terrible years of the revolutionary period. Masonic activity, rid of its republican theories and firmly controlled by a Grand-Master appointed by the Emperor, experienced a vigor in unity never found since.. It is considered that each regiment, each garrison, each city had its Lodge. The testimonies that the sumptuous tokens of the period leave us show that these lodges were rich and influential.. The symbolism is sought after, without comparison with the later eras, which were much more conventional, even bland or destitute at the beginning of the 20th century.. Freemasonry had more than a thousand lodges spread over one hundred and thirty departments and more than sixty thousand Brothers.
