‘Time to renew or join QCCC’

    

It is time to renew with (or join) QCCC for 2027. Quatuor Coronati Correspondence Circle is the corporate side of Quatuor Coronati Lodge 2076 in London. Membership in the lodge is limited to a small number of scholars who are elected, but guys like you and me may join QCCC, the principal benefit of which is possession of the treasury that is Ars Quatuor Coronatorum, the lodge’s annual book of transactions.

Looks like pricing options have expanded. Now there are six ways to read AQC in book form and/or digital format, with subscriptions ranging from $40 to $70.

QC2076 will meet one more time this year, for its installation of officers, Thursday at Great Queen Street. Bro. Adam Kendall will be seated in the Solomonic Chair and will present his inaugural paper.

Those of us, who only can hallucinate of such honored heights, may enjoy the book containing the work of those happy few scholars—which actually is a lot easier if you think about it.

QCCC says:

All members, individual and institutional, receive a copy of Ars Quatuor Coronatorum, the Transactions of Quatuor Coronati Lodge. The volume is produced toward the end of each calendar year and usually mailed in December or January to all members current as of the prior November 30.

AQC provides the full text of all papers delivered during the year, and the questions and answers that followed; the volume also contains book reviews, ‘notes and queries,’ and shorter articles of Masonic interest. If you are missing a recent edition of AQC, you can purchase a copy here.

Members receive priority booking and discounted entry to conferences and symposia arranged by Quatuor Coronati, and enjoy discounts on non-QC regalia and books from our partner suppliers. They have access to the Research Services offered by the Lodge, including assistance with research queries, a service provided by QC volunteers in conjunction with the staff of the Museum of Freemasonry at Great Queen Street in London. Members can also request copies of past papers from in-copyright volumes of AQC for personal research purposes. We ask for a small donation to cover scanning costs. 

Members who provide their email addresses receive regular reminders of our Lodge meetings and other events, and can download a soft copy of the Summons and copies or summaries of Delivery Papers. Those who are members of a lodge in a constitution recognised by the United Grand Lodge of England are entitled and welcome to attend QC Lodge meetings and warmly encouraged to stay for drinks or dinner, which provides an opportunity to meet the speaker and members in a relaxed setting.
