This book explores the religious teachings of best-selling
Victorian author and former Member of Parliament, Laurence Oliphant
(1829-1888). While several biographies have been written on his
captivating life, the stage of his life when Oliphant first
established 'The Household' commune has, until now, been largely
unexplored. This book focuses on this later stage of his life,
exploring Oliphant's religious teachings. Additionally, this study
incorporates a newly discovered archive, which reveals many
behind-the-scenes details of The Household's teachings. Jeffrey D.
Lavoie shows that Oliphant provided a unique interpretation of
sexuality from a mystical Christian perspective, which opposed the
restrictive contemporaneous "Victorian morality."
