The History Spiritualism
THE HISTORY of SPIRITUALISM by ARTHUR CONAN DOYLE, M.D., LL.D. former President d'Honneur de la Fédération Spirite Internationale, President of the London Spiritualist Alliance, and President of the British College of Psychic Science Volume One With Seven Plates PSYCHIC PRESS LTD First edition 1926 To SIR OLIVER LODGE, M.S. A great leader both in physical and in psychic science In token of respect This work is dedicated PREFACE This work has grown from small disconnected chapters into a narrative which covers in a way the whole history of the Spiritualistic movement. This genesis needs some little explanation. I had written certain studies with no particular ulterior object save to gain myself, and to pass on to others, a clear view of what seemed to me to be important episodes in the modern spiritual development of the human race. These included the chapters on Swedenborg, on Irving, on A. J. Davis, on the Hydesville incident, on the history of the Fox sisters, on the Eddys and on the life of D. D. Home. These were all done before it was suggested to my mind that I had already gone some distance in doing a fuller history of the Spiritualistic movement than had hitherto seen the light - a history which would have the advantage of being written from the inside and with intimate personal knowledge of those factors which are characteristic of this modern development. It is indeed curious that this movement, which many of us regard as the most important in the history of the world since the Christ episode, has never had a historian from those who were within it, and who had large personal experience of its development. -

5 Crossing over: spiritualism and the Atlantic divide Bridget Bennett A joke has it that spiritualists first crossed the water in order to get to the other side. Despite its obvious shortcomings, it does suggest a more serious imperative: the investigation of how reading nineteenth-century spiritualism within a transatlantic context might be a highly revelatory activity, might indeed reveal something more interesting than we have hitherto considered about what crossing the Atlantic meant to spiritual- ists. Nineteenth-century spiritualism is routinely described as a phenom- enon that originated in the United States and spread first across the Atlantic and then world-wide. In this essay I will argue that a transatlan- tic focus challenges existing orthodoxies and suggests new areas of inves- tigation. Yet in describing this agenda for reading spiritualism I am conscious that this chapter asks more questions than it answers (and may, at times, seem to raise issues and give examples only to move elsewhere). Though many American and British spiritualists were more interested in the site of the seance, and the revelations it might contain, rather than its cultural origins, the same cannot be said for many historians of spiri- tualism. A number of historians have argued that spiritualism emerged in America as a discrete cultural phenomenon which needs to be read within its American context in order to make sense of its myth of origin – the ‘Rochester rappings’ of 1848. In such interpretations, American spiritual- ism is read as a culturally specific form that arises from a number of local geographical, cultural and political factors.1 Such an approach, however, does not sufficiently account for the complexities of spiritualism’s inher- itance; it does not consider the heterogeneity of a movement that draws from both sides of the Atlantic, and from European Christian traditions as well as Native American religious practices and, crucially, from the religious beliefs of slaves. -

Mediumship: Study and Practice Program 2
Mediumship: Study and Practice Program 2 1 Federação Espírita Brasileira Mediumship: Study and Practice Program 2 Organized by: Marta Antunes Moura Translated by: SUMMARY 2 3 Mediumship: Study and Practice - Program 2 Introduction Further to the launch of the Program I: Mediumship Course: Study and Practice, we present to the Spiritist Movement the Program II which completes the doctrinal content planned for the formation of mediumship workers in the Spiritist House. In this program, the study and practical activities have become more compressed and focused on Mediumistic practice, expected to be developed within six months, including the complementary activities, considered optional. The weekly meetings remain up to two hours, and the presentation of each theoretical theme is at maximum between 30-40 minutes, reserving the remaining time (1 hour and 30/20 minutes) to the Mediumistic exercise, developed in the form of a supervised Mediumistic meeting. Upon completion of the course, if the course coordination understands that participants need more time for Mediumistic practice, they may extend the supervised Mediumistic practice to one or two semesters, in accordance with the existing possibilities. Another possibility, always keeping consistency with the existing conditions in the Spiritist institution, is to direct participants who effectively demonstrate spiritual conditions to join a Mediumistic group, assuming their commitment to the work of mediumship. Participants should be aware that the completion of the course does not guarantee them referral to a Mediumistic group, considering that the Mediumistic experience demands of each one, not only doctrinal knowledge itself, but the persevering effort of moral improvement, dedication, attendance and mental health. -

(2016) a Seance Room of One's Own: Spiritualism, Occultism, and the New Woman in MidTo LateNineteenth Century Supernatural Fiction

A SÉANCE ROOM OF ONE’S OWN: SPIRITUALISM, OCCULTISM, AND THE NEW WOMAN IN MID- TO LATE-NINETEENTH CENTURY SUPERNATURAL FICTION JAMIE SPEARS A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the University of Sunderland for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2016 ABSTRACT This thesis will examine the nineteenth-century supernatural stories written by women connected to Spiritualism. These include ‘standard’ ghost stories, esoteric novels and works infused with Spiritualist and occult themes and tropes. The middle- and upper-class Victorian woman was already considered something of a spirit guide within her own home; following the emergence of Modern Spiritualism in the 1850s, women were afforded the opportunity to become paid spirit guides (that is, mediums and lecturers) in the public sphere. Spiritualism was an empowering force for female mediums like Elizabeth d’Espérance and Emma Hardinge Britten, and Spiritualist philosopher Catherine Crowe. In this thesis I will examine how these new power dynamics—to use Britten’s phrasing, the ‘place and mission of woman’—are reflected in society and literature. This thesis sees Spiritualism as the impetus for several occult movements which emerged near to the end of century, including Marie Corelli’s Electrical Christianity, Madame Blavatsky’s Theosophy, and Florence Farr’s Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn. -

Florence Cook
Florence Cook Florence Eliza Cook (ca 1856 – 22 April 1904) was a medium who claimed to materialise a spirit, "Katie King". The question of whether the spirit was real or a fraud was a notable public controversy of the mid-1870s. Her abilities were endorsed by Sir William Crookes but many observers were skeptical of Crookes's investigations, both at the time and subsequently. Contents Biography Notes References External links Katie King, Florence Cook and Sir Biography William Crookes Cook was a teenage girl who started to claim mediumistic abilities in 1870 and in 1871–2 she developed her abilities under the established mediums Frank Herne and Charles Williams. Herne was associated with the spirit "John King", and Florence became associated with "Katie King", stated to be John King's daughter. Herne was exposed as a fraud in 1875.[1] Katie King developed from appearing as a disembodied face to a fully physical materialisation.[2] The spirit was said to have appeared first between 1871 and 1874 in séances conducted by Florence Cook in London, and later in 1874–1875 in New York in séances held by the mediums Jennie Holmes and her husband Nelson Holmes. Katie King was believed by Spiritualists to be the daughter of John King, a spirit control of the 1850s through the 1870s that appeared in many séances involving materialised spirits. A spirit control is a powerful and communicative spirit that organises the appearance of other spirits at a séance. John King claimed to be the spirit of Henry Morgan, the buccaneer (Doyle 1926: volume 1, 241, 277). -
1904 a Médium Inglesa Florence Cook Nascida No Dia 3 De Junho
FLORENCE COOK 1856 - 1904 A médium Inglesa Florence Cook nascida no dia 3 de junho 1856, e desencarnada na mesma cidade em 1904. Os primeiros pormenores da vida de Florence são fornecidos por ela própria, em carta dirigida a Mr. Harrison em maio de 1872. Diz a carta: "Tenho 16 anos de idade. Desde a minha infância vejo os espíritos e ouço-os falar. Tinha o costume de sentar-me a sós e conversar com eles. Eles me cercavam e eu os tomava por pessoas vivas. Como ninguém os via nem ouvia, meus pais procuraram inculcar em mim a idéia de que tudo era produto de minha imaginação. Todavia não conseguiram modificar o meu modo de pensar a respeito do assunto e foi assim que passei a ser considerada como uma menina excêntrica. Na primavera de 1870 fui convidada a visitar uma amiga de colégio. Ela me perguntou se eu já ouvira falar de Espiritismo, acrescentado que seus pais e ela se reuniam em torno de uma mesa. Nessa situação obtinham certos movimentos; disse que, se eu consentisse, ainda naquela tarde ensaiariam uma experiência comigo". Miss Cook pediu permissão a sua mãe e, em seguida, realizaram a primeira sessão, obtendo-se a comunicação de um espírito que se dizia ter sido a sua tia. Mais tarde, quando a jovem ficou em pé junto a mesa, esta se ergueu a uma altura de 4 pés. Miss Cook dá continuidade ao seu relato: "Na segunda sessão os espíritos nos deram provas de identidade, mas não chegamos a ficar de todo convencidas. Por fim, recebemos por tiptologia, uma comunicação orientando- nos para que deixássemos o aposento em penumbra.
