Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831 91), writer, traveller and
spiritualist, is well known for her role in nineteenth-century
theosophy. Born in the Ukraine, Blavatsky travelled extensively and
claimed to have spent seven years studying esoteric mysteries in
Tibet. From 1863 she began working as a medium and later counted W.
B. Yeats among her followers. In 1875 she founded the Theosophical
Society with Henry Steel Olcott. Influenced by Eastern philosophy
and the Templars, Freemasons and Rosicrucians, the Society aimed to
unravel the occult mysteries of nature. First published in 1877,
this book outlines theosophy's precepts. The book is a mishmash of
Hermetic philosophy, Christian history and Asian theology, and was
allegedly dictated astrally from authorities including Plato,
Solomon and Roger Bacon. In Volume 1, Blavatsky addresses the
'infallibility of science', attacking the methods of Darwin and
others by arguing that scientific truth can only be accessed
through occult understanding.
