摘要：Freemasonry, as the prototype of organized sociability par excellence, was created around a space, and not the reverse, so that the lodge was by nature the ultimate seat of masonic sociability. In this study, we shall attempt to explain the diverse forms of the lodge, from the point of view of sociability. While we are examining a multifarious society, we should not forget that it also has a powerful normative standard in regard to socialization. The lodge is an organized space, with multiple functions (educational, spiritual, cultural, political), but it is also a place in which symbolism appropriates that space, which can be entered only by means of a series of initiation rites. The masonic lodge has cultural antecedents that predefine a social space and structure a kind of multiple sociability. In this article we will address the object, function and use of the masonic lodge.
