Essay Review
Journal of Scientific Exploration, Vol. 35, No. 1, pp. 209–223, 2021 0892-3310/21 ESSAY REVIEW Mediumistic Materializations in France During the Early 1920s Sessões de Ectoplasmia: Experimentos com Ectoplasma na França de 1920 no Instituto de Metapsíquica Internacional [Ectoplasm Séances: Experiments with Ectoplasm in France in the 1920s at the International Metapsychic Institute] by Antonio Leon. Epígrafe, 2019. 349 pp. ISBN 978-85-65307-32-1. Reviewed by Carlos S. Alvarado Parapsychology Foundation [email protected] https://10.31275/20211843 Creative Commons License CC-BY-NC As I have argued before in this journal, there is a rich tradition of psychical research studies of materialization mediums published before 1930 (Alvarado, 2019a). The phenomenon, associated with many well-known mediums such as Eva C., Florence Cook, William Eglinton, D. D. Home, Franek Kluski, and Eusapia Palladino, has been reviewed by many people during the nineteenth century and later (e.g., Moses, 1884–1886; Richet, 1922, Part 3). Opinions about it have been diverse. In a review of nineteenth-century evidence about it in his book Modern Spiritualism, Frank Podmore (1902, Vol. 2, Chapter 6) was rather dubious about the existence of the phenomenon. In his later concise history of psychical research, Rudolf Tischner (1924) argued that we cannot be sure if “strict proof of the reality of materialization has been provided,” but there has been “circumstantial evidence of considerable strength” (p. 68; this, and other translations, are mine). More positively, Charles Richet (1922) wrote in his celebrated Traité de métapsychique that materializations could “take a definitive rank in science” even if “we understand absolutely nothing about it” (p. -

Harrison 58 A Spiritualist Archdeacon 61 Parapsychology in Germany – Eberhard Bauer 61 Mediumship in Australia may be ancient 64 NEW DNB SAYS STAINTON MOSES WAS MARRIED The medium for “ Spirit Teachings “ left a wife Mary on his death in 1892, according to his entry in “ The New Dictionary of National Biography” published in September 2004. Previously historians had known only that his mother, believed to be called Mary or more formally Mrs Moses, survived him. The publisher OUP has now been asked for evidence of the marriage. The New DNB contains a number of articles useful to students of the pioneers. Richard Noakes, for example, writes about the much-travelled Mrs Guppy. Alan Gauld assesses D.D. Home and E.J. Dingwall, both of them puzzling. But care must be taken in using the entries. 1) the long lead time before publication means important new sources are missed. Thus the entry on CPS vice-president Rosamond Lehmann does not use the biography by Selina Hastings. 2) even the entries of reliable authors may have errors introduced in the editorial process. This may be why, for example, Anne Taylor in the entry on Annie Besant twice says that Olcott died in 1909 instead of 1907, or Peter Rowlands in the entry on Lodge calls Myers his psychic mentor “ Frederick” 3) some authors know their subject, but are perhaps too sympathetic. -
Historical Notes on Psychic Phenomena in Specialised Journals
European Journal of Parapsychology c 2006 European Journal of Parapsychology Volume 21.1, pages 58–87 ISSN: 0168-7263 Historical Notes on Psychic Phenomena in Specialised Journals Carlos S. Alvarado∗, Massimo Biondi∗∗ and Wim Kramer† ∗Division of Perceptual Studies, University of Virginia Health System ∗∗Rome, Italy †Bunnik, The Netherlands Abstract This paper presents brief information about the existence and ori- entation of selected journals that have published articles on psychic phenomena. Some journals emphasize particular theoretical ideas, or methodological approaches. Examples include the Journal du magn´etismeand Zoist, in which animal magnetism was discussed, and the Revue Spirite, and Luce e Ombra, which focused on discar- nate agency. Nineteenth-century journals such as the Proceedings of the Society for Psychical Research and the Annales des Sciences Psychiques emphasized both methodology and the careful accumu- lation of data. Some publications, such as the Journal of the Amer- ican Society for Psychical Research and the Dutch Tijdschrift voor Parapsychologie, were influenced by the agenda of a single individ- ual. Other journals represented particular approaches or points of view, such as those of spiritualism (Luce e Ombra and Psychic Sci- ence), experimental parapsychology (Journal of Parapsychology), or skepticism (Skeptical Inquirer). An awareness of the differing char- acteristics of these publications illustrates aspects of the development of parapsychology as a discipline. Correspondence details: Carlos S.
