This peer-reviewed study represents a culmination of years of
research into the history of the Theosophical Society. In this
unique project which combines biographies with source analyses,
Jeffrey D. Lavoie records a detailed history of the early
Theosophical Society and examines its relationship with the modern
Spiritualist movement between the years 1875-1891. Special
attention has been paid to some of the neglected figures associated
with these organizations including Arthur Lillie- the
Gnostic-occultist and early critic of the Theosophical Society; the
Davenport Brothers- the Spiritualist mediums who developed many of
the standard elements which became associated with modern
Spiritualism; Alfred Wallace- the prominent scientist,
Spiritualist, and supposed member of the Theosophical Society and
many others. This work will appeal to a wide array of readers
including those interested in modern religious movements, Western
Esotericism, South Asian history, and Victorian studies.
