I want to know the answer to the following question:
The presence of whom in the French "lodges of adoption" formed in the 1780s was die to the close ties shared with aristocratic society?
All the background I'm provided with is that "German historian Reinhart Koselleck claimed that "On the Continent there were two social structures that left a decisive imprint on the Age of Enlightenment: the Republic of Letters and the Masonic lodges.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: no
