Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Researches Into the Phenomena of Modern Spiritualism Of all the eminent scientists who have pains takingly investigated the mysterious phenomena of Modem Spiritualism - and there are many - Sir William Crookes must be easily recognized as leader. His eminence as a discoverer and an inventor and his vast services to the world as a chemist have given to his "Researches into the Phenomena of Modem Spiritualism" a value and potency that could not attach to labors of men equally honest and painstaking, but devoid of his scientific attainments and great reputation. Beginning his investigations of Spiritual Phenomena over a third of a century ago, when the prejudice against psychic research was much stronger than today, and pursuing his researches with all the care, caution, and accuracy that marked his other scientific work; he rendered his studies in this new field doubly valuable to the world by his conscientious record of all the details and conditions and his noble boldness in publishing the same to the world. The record of his experiments with Daniel Douglas Home and Miss Florence Cook as psychics, all conducted under test conditions, must ever stand among the most marvelous of human experiences and an impregnable defence of the spirituality of man's nature and of his ability to survive the shock of death. The articles, here quoted, first appeared in the Quarterly Journal of Science, of which Sir William was the able editor; and they have been supplemented by extracts from the speech of the eminent scientist delivered from the chair of the British Association, at its Bristol meeting, in 1898, in which speech he declared over again his convictions concerning the value of the results of scientific investigation into what has been known as the realm of the occult.

Download or read book The Rise of Contemporary Spiritualism written by Anne Kalvig and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Talking to the dead and communication with 'the other side' is often presented as a taboo in an increasingly technological and medically advanced world. However, practices of spiritualism and mediumship continue to remain popular and in high demand within contemporary Western societies. This book analyses the practices of today’s mediums, who insist on standing at the threshold between life and death, interpreting signs and passing on communications, and asks how such concepts and practices are perceived by contemporary society. Using first-hand material gathered from alternative fairs, mediumistic congresses, séances, and interviews with both practitioners and clients, as well as thorough textual analysis, Anne Kalvig provides a clear overview of the various forms of consumption of mediumship in Western society and places these within a socio-cultural, religious and historical context. She also raises questions as to the controversies surrounding spiritualism and its representation and relationship with popular culture and the media. This book will be of interest to researchers in the field of sociology, religious studies, folklore, media studies and anthropology as well as to anyone interested in the upsurge of contemporary spiritualism, psychic phenomena and the paranormal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Supernatural Entertainments, Simone Natale vividly depicts spiritualism’s rise as a religious and cultural phenomenon and explores its strong connection to the growth of the media entertainment industry in the nineteenth century. He frames the spiritualist movement as part of a new commodity culture that changed how public entertainments were produced and consumed. Starting with the story of the Fox sisters, considered the first spiritualist mediums in history, Natale follows the trajectory of spiritualism in Great Britain and the United States from its foundation in 1848 to the beginning of the twentieth century. He demonstrates that spiritualist mediums and leaders adopted many of the promotional strategies and spectacular techniques that were being developed for the broader entertainment industry. Spiritualist mediums were indistinguishable from other professional performers, as they had managers and agents, advertised in the press, and used spectacularism to draw audiences. Addressing the overlap between spiritualism’s explosion and nineteenth-century show business, Natale provides an archaeology of how the supernatural became a powerful force in the media and popular culture of today.
