1905 original document Jeu de la Casserole - Société Secrète Freemasonry

1905

About the Item

The 1905 original document titled "Jeu de la Casserole - Société Secrète, Jeu Anti-Maçonnique" offers a unique glimpse into the political and social landscape of early 20th-century France. Produced by the Ligue patriotique des françaises (Patriotic League of French Women), this document reflects the fervent anti-Masonic sentiment that permeated French society during this period. At the heart of the document is the "Jeu de la Casserole" (Casserole Game), which served as a tool for spreading anti-Masonic propaganda and promoting the goals of the Patriotic League. Through caricatures, illustrations, and text, the document seeks to demonize Freemasonry and depict it as a secretive and subversive force undermining the values of the French nation. The imagery and language employed in the document are designed to evoke fear and suspicion towards Freemasons, portraying them as a shadowy cabal exerting undue influence over politics, finance, and culture. The use of symbols such as the Masonic compass and square, often accompanied by sinister depictions of hooded figures and occult symbols, reinforces the message of conspiracy and clandestine activity. Central to the narrative presented in the document is the notion of a "Société Secrète" (Secret Society) operating within Freemasonry, allegedly working to advance its own interests at the expense of the French people. Through sensationalized accounts of Masonic rituals and ceremonies, the document seeks to paint Freemasonry as a threat to the established order and traditional values.
