Anna Kingsford (1846 1888) published her first book at the age of
13. A passionate anti-vivisectionist, she also championed womens'
rights and vegetarianism. Leaving behind her husband and daughter,
she travelled to France to study medicine, accompanied by the
writer Edward Maitland. The pair shared a fascination with the
spiritual and became leading members of the Theosophical and
Hermetic societies. This book, first published anonymously in 1882,
is a collection of lectures on theosophical topics delivered to a
private audience in summer 1881. It explores the basis of all
religions, the nature of the soul, spiritualism and the feminine
aspect of the divine, and also discusses blood sacrifice,
vegetarianism, pantheism and the teachings of the Kabbalah and the
Bhagavad Gita. The author hoped this wide-ranging study of
allegories, symbols and myths would 'restore and rehabilitate the
truth', reconciling mind and heart, religion and science, and
promoting liberty and reason.
