Headstone Iconography: Documentation and Interpretation of Fraternal Emblems at Greenwood Cemetery, OrlandoMurphy, Roberta 01 January 2007 (has links)
The Greenwood Cemetery established in the 1880's, and is one of the largest cemeteries both owned and operated by the City of Orlando. Occupying approximately eighty acres of land and holding 80,000 known interment record cards, it is the oldest cemetery still in use for the City of Orlando. Research on the Greenwood Cemetery's headstone iconography is important because this type of information has not been previously documented or studied. A few studies have been conducted by the Genealogy Society to document ancestry, as well as documenting the history of prominent people buried within the cemetery; however, very little mention is given to the iconography. Although some headstones are illegible due to a number of factors such as erosion, natural disasters and vandalism, the Greenwood Cemetery is ideal for research because most of the headstones are inscribed with a written record, often giving names and dates. The purpose of this study is to (1) document the fraternal organization symbols that are found on the Greenwood Cemetery's headstones; and (2) interpret the cultural meanings of each fraternal symbol. The focus of this study is limited to fraternal organization iconography; however, there are various other symbols (religious, occupation, etc) found throughout the Greenwood Cemetery. The data collected from the headstones have revealed the following fraternal iconography: Academic Fraternal Groups (AFG), American Legion (AL), Ancient Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine (AAONMS), Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks (BPOE). Benevolent and Patriotic Order of DOES (BPOD), Boy Scouts of America (BSA), Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers (BLE), Daughters of lsabella (DOI), Daughters of Rebekahs (DOR), Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Daughters of the Nile (DON), Free and Accepted Masons (F&AM), Independent Order of Odd Fellows (IOOF), International Alliance of Theatrical State Employees (IATSE), International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (BEW), Kiwanis International (Kl), Knights of Columbus (KC), Knights of Pythias (KOP), Ladies Auxiliary of Veterans of Foreign Wars (LAVFW), LIONS International (LI}, Loyal Order of the Moose (LOOM), Mosaic Templars of America (MTA), National Rifle Association (NRA), Order of the Easter Star (OES), Rainbow Girls (RG), Rotary International (RI), Sisters of Pythias (SOP), Strates Memorial Club (SMC), United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC) and the Woodmen of the World (WOW). This thesis will cover each of the fraternal organization's symbols, provide a historical background on what each symbol represents within the organization, and explain why the fraternal organization headstone iconography in Greenwood Cemetery is important to the heritage of the City of Orlando.

[en] FRATERNAL COMPLEX: CONSTITUTION OF THE SUBJECT AND SOCIAL BOND FORMATION / [pt] COMPLEXO FRATERNO: CONSTITUIÇÃO DO SUJEITO E FORMAÇÃO DO LAÇO SOCIALREBECA GOLDSMID 14 September 2017 (has links)
[pt] Apesar da importância do irmão na constituição do sujeito e na formação do laço social, somente por volta do ano 2000 os autores contemporâneos passaram a mostrar um interesse maior pelo estudo da relação fraterna. Grande parte desses estudos e pesquisas, entretanto, se dedica mais à competição e rivalidade do que à boa convivência e solidariedade. Em nossa revisão teórica realizada na abordagem psicanalítica, estudamos os clássicos – Freud, Klein e Adler – e prosseguimos com os autores contemporâneos, fazendo um estudo da relação fraterna, tanto em seus aspectos de disputa e de rivalidade como nos de solidariedade e de companheirismo. Focalizamos a formação da fratria, a posição na fratria, o vínculo fraterno, o complexo fraterno e o laço social. Constatamos, assim, a importância da fratria na constituição do sujeito e do laço social. Ilustramos a discussão teórica com fragmentos de casos de nossa clínica. / [en] Despite the importance of a brother in the constitution of the subject and social bond formation, only around the year 2000 contemporary authors began to show a greater interest in studying fraternal relationships. However, a great number of these studies and research are dedicated towards competition and rivalry rather than good coexistence and solidarity. In our psychoanalytic based theoretical review, we studied classical authors – Freud, Klein and Adler – and proceeded with contemporary scholars, studying the fraternal relationship in its dispute and rivalry aspects, as well as in its solidarity and companionship elements. We focused the formation of the phratry, the position in the phratry, the fraternal bond, the fraternal complex and the social bond. We verified the importance of the phratry in the constitution of the subject and of the social bond. We illustrate the theoretical discussion with fragments of clinical cases.

The rise and fall of fraternal methods of social insurance : a case study of the Independent Order of Oddfellows of British Columbia sickness insurance, 1874-1951Emery, John C. H. 11 1900 (has links)
Most descriptions of the rise of the Canadian welfare state emphasize that traditional social welfare institutions were always inadequate and it took the Depression to demonstrate the need for better, more comprehensive arrangements. Beyond the enlightening influence of the Depression, the rise of current welfare state institutions is attributed to the efforts and influences of politicians, unions, social reformers, and intellectuals. This myth about the rise of the welfare state has been so widely accepted that there has been little effort expended in examining pre-welfare state social insurance arrangements. The findings of this case study of the Independent Order of Oddfellows of British Columbia (IOOFBC) sickness insurance indicate that before 1930 there was an extensive formalized system of social insurance. The study also reveals that rather than having demonstrated the inadequacies of the traditional welfare mechanisms, the severe economic conditions of the Depression devastated the existing social insurance arrangements which created the impetus for the rise of the welfare state. Up until 1930, membership in a fraternal organization, like the Independent Order of Oddfellows (IOOF), was one of the most important sources of sickness/health insurance and life insurance throughout the world. Fraternal insurers were able to provide insurance at a lower cost than commercial insurers through their non-profit motive and their use of screening and peer monitoring practices to alleviate problems of adverse selection and moral hazard. Until 1930, 13% of the population in British Columbia had sickness/health insurance coverage through fraternal membership. Critics of fraternal insurance argued that while fraternal insurers may have had low costs, they led a financially precarious existence due to their hazardous pricing practices. An analysis of IOOFBC lodges for the period 1891 to 1950 reveals that this is not a good explanation of the decline of fraternal insurance. Even with the most hazardous of pricing practices, IOOFBC lodges had almost no probability of being bankrupted by high claims. Early in lodge operations, surplus revenues were invested in assets, like the lodge hall, which generated revenues that subsidized lodge operations and benefit payments. Given that fraternal insurers were viable, why was fraternal membership not an important source of insurance coverage after the Depression? An analysis of the memberships of four IOOFBC lodges over the period 1891 to 1980 reveals that the devastation of fraternal memberships in the Depression promoted the growth of alternative (commercial and government) insurance arrangements. In the 1930s, more workers than ever before were without sickness insurance coverage. As the probability of suspension for non-payment of dues tripled, workers would have had little expectation of remaining in a fraternal membership long enough to collect sick benefits that were primarily needed after age 45. Through and after the Depression, IOOFBC lodges abandoned their insurance functions. Lodge memberships had "aged" so much between 1930 and 1945 that the increased lodge benefit liabilities made reforming the IOOFBC's beneficial systems impractical. If changes were not made to the IOOFBC subordinate lodges' dues and benefits, lodges would have had to potentially draw on their assets to meet their inflated obligations. The solution adopted was to abandon sick benefits altogether as members who had always been opposed to the insurance.
