The Politics of Sociability: Freemasonry and German Civil Society, 1840-1918 - Social History, Popular Culture and Politics in Germany
Stefan-Ludwig Hoffmann
Presents a cultural and political history of German Freemasonary in the 19th and early 20th centuries. This work shows how Freemasonry became a social refuge for elevated and liberal-minded bourgeois men who felt attracted to its secret rituals and moral teachings. It argues that they failed to balance modern politics with a cosmopolitan ethos.
