Author: MARK CHRISTOPHER CARNES Title: Secret Ritual and Manhood in Victorian America
Description: Yale University Press, 1989. Gekartonneerd met stofomslag. Pp: 226. Freemasons, Odd Fellows, Knights of Pythias - why did millions of nineteenth century American men belong to these and other secret orders? In this engrossing study, Mark C. Carnes argues that fraternal rituals created a fantasy world antithetical to prevailing religious practices, gender roles, and institutional structures, offering a male religious counterculture that opposed an increasingly liberal and feminized Protestantism.
