  • Ideal Homes? Social Change and Domestic Life

    Ideal Homes? Social Change and Domestic Life

    IDEAL HOMES? Until now, the ‘home’ as a space within which domestic lives are lived out has been largely ignored by sociologists. Yet the ‘home’ as idea, place and object consumes a large proportion of individuals’ incomes, and occupies their dreams and their leisure time while the absence of a physical home presents a major threat to both society and the homeless themselves. This edited collection provides for the first time an analysis of the space of the ‘home’ and the experiences of home life by writers from a wide range of disciplines, including sociology, criminology, psychology, social policy and anthropology. It covers a range of subjects, including gender roles, different generations’ relationships to home, the changing nature of the family, transition, risk and alternative visions of home. Ideal Homes? provides a fascinating analysis which reveals how both popular images and experiences of home life can produce vital clues as to how society’s members produce and respond to social change. Tony Chapman is Head of Sociology at the University of Teesside. Jenny Hockey is Senior Lecturer in the School of Comparative and Applied Social Sciences, University of Hull. IDEAL HOMES?

    Kansas Lodge of Research, Annual Meeting, March 17, 2016 2 Presentation of His Material at One of Our Membership Meetings

    1 KANSAS GRAND LODGE OF RESEARCH Capitol Plaza Hotel, Topeka, Kansas Annual Meeting Minutes 3/17/2016 DRAFT At 3:00 p.m. the meeting was called to order by Worshipful Master Frederick Reichert in the Pioneer Room of the Capitol Plaza Hotel. In Attendance: Other officers in attendance were Michael Snively, Senior Warden, John Crary, Junior Warden, Wayne Rollf, Treasurer, and Jon Woodward, Secretary. By the Secretary’s register, 68 other members were in attendance. Worshipful Reichert welcomed the members and introduced the officers and chairs of the standing committees. Consent Agenda: After assuring that the members present had the opportunity to review the Secretary’s financial and membership statement, as well as the Treasurer’s Report, the Master called for a motion to approve the consent agenda. The motion was properly made, seconded and approved without objection. The Secretary noted that there were several in attendance who had not previously attended a meeting of the lodge of research and asked for a show of hands of new members since the previous meeting. There were approximately thirty new members in attendance. Owing to the support of the Kansas Masonic Foundation and the generosity of Brother Bob Shively in particular, 21 new members had signed up immediately prior to the meeting. Committee Reports: Worshipful Reichert called upon committee chairs to report on the actions taken by their committees since the last meeting. John Crary reported that the research committee was assisting the Grand Lodge Masonic Education Committee with its preparation of the Masonry-in-a-box initiative, but was supportive of individual research efforts as may be taken by members.

The Architecture of Joseph Michael Gandy (1771-1843) and Sir John Soane (1753-1837): An Exploration Into the Masonic and Occult Imagination of the Late Enlightenment Abstract In examining select works of English architects Joseph Michael Gandy and Sir John Soane, this dissertation is intended to bring to light several important parallels between architectural theory and freemasonry during the late Enlightenment. Both architects developed architectural theories regarding the universal origins of architecture in an attempt to establish order as well as transcend the emerging historicism of the early nineteenth century. There are strong parallels between Soane's use of architectural narrative and his discussion of architectural 'model' in relation to Gandy's understanding of 'trans-historical' architecture. The primary textual sources discussed in this thesis include Soane's Lectures on Architecture, delivered at the Royal Academy from 1809 to 1836, and Gandy's unpublished treatise entitled the Art, Philosophy, and Science of Architecture, circa 1826.

    Apropos Doors, Janus and Tristram Shandy Gene Washington, Utah State University

    Utah State University From the SelectedWorks of Gene Washington 2008 Apropos Doors, Janus and Tristram Shandy gene washington, Utah State University Available at: https://works.bepress.com/gene_washington/155/ APROPOS DOORS, JANUS AND TRISTRAM SHANDY In the course of a discussion of “Doors as Limina ,” the French critic, Claude Gandelman, suggests that literary research, by failing to “deal systematically with doors in fiction, has failed to understand what may be a “metaliterary tale” of the fiction itself-- or, perhaps, something so far unknown about the genre, if any, the fiction belongs to.” 1 He then goes on, by way of illustrating how the “Doors as Limina” would appear as a tool of literary research, to discuss briefly Madame Bovary , a work “full of doors and windows,” and Kafka’s Before the Law, a story that involves a man seeking justice, a doorkeeper and a series of doors (pp. 53-54). For Gandelman, Flaubert, in particular, “seems to need an opening of a door in order to write a new chapter or describe a change in the mood of his heroine” (p. 54). Tristram Shandy is a work replete with both the use and the mention of doors and windows. There is, for example, the parlour door, the most often used and mentioned , the dressing room door, Toby’s sentrybox door, and the door to Mrs Wadman’s house. Even the parts of doors, the bad hinges on the parlour door ( TS , 3.21.239), various key-holes (TS , 3.38.277; 8.35.729), and the rapper on Mrs Wadman’s door ( TS , 9.16.768), have a role in the narrative.

    Atlantic Parlour Culture: Loci of Power By Amber Melinda May Hanrahan A Thesis Submitted to Saint Mary’s University, Halifax, Nova Scotia in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in Atlantic Canada Studies September, 2015, Halifax, Nova Scotia Copyright Amber Melinda May Hanrahan, 2015 Approved: Dr. Peter L. Twohig Co-Supervisor Approved: Dr. Richard H. Field Co-Supervisor Approved: Dr. James H. Morrison External Examiner Date: September 15, 2015 ii Atlantic Parlour Culture: Loci of Power By Amber Melinda May Hanrahan Abstract Parlour Culture is considered for its long duration and social impact on both sides of the Atlantic, but my research focus culminates with the expression of that culture in Queens County, Nova Scotia from the late 18th century to the mid-20th century. Interdisciplinary research of vernacular parlour culture has uncovered evidence for a sharing of social power through reciprocity and inclusivity during the American parlour of New England, the Liverpool Township and the settlements of White Point and Hunts Point, Queens County. To identify the essence of parlour culture in each of these areas, research traces the intangible life behaviours as related to the tangible ones of place (locus). Through its dominant goal of promoting relationships between the home and the community, parlour culture becomes the instrument for the realization of self- identity. Thus, the essence of parlour culture is that of a spatial artifact directed toward the construction of sustainable community life. An original study of two South Shore communities reveals an elegant social model based on a parlour culture that was transferred from New England.

    2 Grand rank is an honor bestowed on Masons who have distinguished themselves by faithfully serving the Craft. However, appointment as a Grand Lodge officer is not merely a reward for past service – rather it carries with it increased duties to continue service to the Craft as an officer of the Grand Lodge of Kansas. The Grand Lodge of Kansas recognizes two types of Grand Lodge officers; elected and appointed. Elected Grand Lodge officers are the Grand Master, Deputy Grand Master, Grand Wardens, Grand Treasurer, and the Grand Secretary. All other Grand Lodge officers are appointed. This manual provides an overview of the responsibilities of appointed Grand Lodge officers. Kansas Masonic law does not list the qualifications of appointed Grand Lodge officers, although in most cases, an appointed grand officer is a past master who is well regarded in his lodge, district, and area. However, Grand Masters may ask any Master Mason who has not yet attained the rank of past master to serve as an appointed officer of the Grand Lodge. All appointed Grand Lodge officers serve at the pleasure of the Grand Master, just as appointed officers in a regular lodge serve at the pleasure of the Worshipful Master. Appointments to grand rank occur during the Grand Master’s term of office and terminate when his successor is installed. In Kansas, elected Grand Lodge officers, as well as Grand Lecturers, and Grand Representatives, are entitled to be addressed thereafter as “Right Worshipful.” Upon his installation, and for life thereafter, the Grand Master is entitled to be addressed as “Most Worshipful.” Appointment to grand rank automatically confers the title of “Worshipful.” But remember, brethren who serve as an appointed Grand Lodge officer may have already earned the title of “Right Worshipful,” (i.e.
