Photo Essay On Veracruz Masonic Temple, Paul J. Rich
Photo Essay On Veracruz Masonic Temple, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
My teaching assistant of some years past, Carlos Cruz, took a great set of pictures in the summer of 2009 of the Masonic temple in Veracruz in Mexico. The grand lodge there at one time extended itself to states other than Veracruz. The building is right by the historic old lighthouse.

Not all materials are going to end up on the Web. Some will always be only on paper. In Washington we have a wonderful library at the House of the Temple, a Scottish Rite Masonic institution. I am always glad to introduce visitors to its treasures.

Rivals At War Over Burns's Apron, Paul J. Rich

Hay's Two Years In Kurdistan, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The British invasion during World War I of what is now Iraq has been a focus of a number of my books and a number of books that I have edited. My argument has been a simple one, that had American policy makers bothered to familiarize themselves with the abortive British incursion and the disasters that ensued, the American invasion of Iraq might have been tempered. Look before you leap.
Lydia Phillips And Mathew Carey, Paul J. Rich
Lydia Phillips And Mathew Carey, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
Mathew Carey was an important Philadelphia publisher in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Original work by myself and students produced some interesting evidence of his efforts to smuggle books into Mexico. This has been extended by investigations at the National Heritage Museum in Lexington, Massachusetts.
The Merits Of Secrecy, Paul J. Rich
The Merits Of Secrecy, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
This is one of the talks which I give on occasion to a lodge, and often it is delivered after an initiation. It addresses the problem of secrecy, which in a free society is both a right and a difficulty. Undoubtedly one of the public relations hurtles for Freemasonry is its perception as a covert group.
Masonic Vocabulary, Paul J. Rich
Masonic Vocabulary, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
This is another of my talks that I frequently give to a lodge. Since the aim is participation, I generally start with a short little potted history of Masonic dictionaries and vocabulary, and then invite the audience to put forward words from the ritual for discussion -- "cowan" is one that always can launch things.
Creating The Arabian Gulf - Jacket, Paul J. Rich
Creating The Arabian Gulf - Jacket, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The design of the cover for the newest edition of Creating the Arabian Gulf really surprised me, as the publisher found an illustration of Arab youths with oranges -- in the book I mention an incident during British days where a Qatari lad was beaten for stealing an orange, an illustration of the rags to riches life of the Gulf Arabs. That there would be such an apt picture still amazes me.
Eugenia Perez, Paul J. Rich
Eugenia Perez, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
Eugenia Perez is a supremely gifted Mexican artist. I have had the privilege of providing the introductions to some works about her. She has had several marked periods, including a remarkable one where her work to me suggested that of the very distinctive early Peruvian Viceregal school and a later phase when her experiments with color have been startling.
Do I Think Policy Research Helps The World?, Paul J. Rich
Do I Think Policy Research Helps The World?, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
Does the work done by policy scholars have any real effect on the world? Are academics relevant? Do I think all this work is useful?

More About The Apron That Wasn't, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The Times, both in Scotland and London, had a real field day with the story of how I along with others felt the Masonic apron of Robert Burns wasn't the Bard's. It isn't often that an academic paper gets on the front page of the Times, so I certainly relished the whole incident.

The Mexican Viceroy's French Cooks: Masonic Mysteries In The Palace Kitchens, Paul J. Rich
The Mexican Viceroy's French Cooks: Masonic Mysteries In The Palace Kitchens, Paul J. Rich
Paul J. Rich
The hitherto obscure eighteenth-century history of Freemasonry in Mexico is illuminated by the records of the Roman Catholic Inquisition, whose courts were active in torturing, trying, and punishing anyone suspected of Masonic activity. The Viceroy himself was not exempt from inquiry, and on a couple of occasions his French employees in his palace in Mexico City fell prey to the tribunal.
