André COMBES, director of the Institute of Masonic Studies and Research, summarizes very briefly on stage the history of Freemasonry from its origins in the Middle Ages with the brotherhoods of stonemasons and masons until the 20th century. Freemasonry, whose term dates back to the 14th century, appeared in its modern form only in the 18th century, in the continuity of the spirit of the Enlightenment that perfectly embodies Voltaire. Many personalities like Winston Churchill, Pierre Mendès France, Salvador Dali and Jules Ferry joined the masonic lodges. The anti-maçonnism was first done by the Catholic Church to be today the prerogative of the extreme right.
