Download or read book The Darkened Room written by Alex Owen and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2004-04-15 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A highly original study that examines the central role played by women as mediums, healers, and believers during the golden age of spiritualism in the late Victorian era, The Darkened Room is more than a meditation on women mediums—it's an exploration of the era's gender relations. The hugely popular spiritualist movement, which maintained that women were uniquely qualified to commune with spirits of the dead, offered female mediums a new independence, authority, and potential to undermine conventional class and gender relations in the home and in society. Using previously unexamined sources and an innovative approach, Alex Owen invokes the Victorian world of darkened séance rooms, theatrical apparitions, and moving episodes of happiness lost and regained. She charts the struggles between spiritualists and the medical and legal establishments over the issue of female mediumship, and provides new insights into the gendered dynamics of Victorian society.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ...living in spotless purity, laboring with unselfish philanthropy, and dying, as Rousseau's hero said, " like a god,"--we may love, honor, revere, and regard as a divine type of God and humanity. But, according to the Protestant idea under which we profess to live, every man must be allowed to interpret the Bible for himself, and frame his own creed. The orthodox sects have their interpretations; the liberal Christians theirs; the Rationalists theirs, and the Spiritualists theirs; and all must be permitted to enjoy their conscientious opinions without being denounced either infidel, heretical or time-serving. No human interpretation is infallible. It will be a long time before we all arrive at the absolute truth, and it were unwise for any to assume the authority to pronounce absolute judgment in wholesale condemnation of any class of our human brotherhood, because they are not on our plane of understanding. However, there are those who seem so perverse in their dogmatical interpretations of Scripture, it becomes difficult to withhold the thunderbolts of denunciation Jesus hurled at the hard heads of Judea. Wrapping their creeds around them like coats of mail, they resist everything like appeals, unless it comes like the thunders shaking Sinai and jarring down the wails of Jerusalem. We must give them their Bible as a literal book, until some idea of its spiritual significance is literally knocked into their materialistic sconces. But not so with the masses of religionists who cling to the Bible with uninformed reverence. Their religious nature is weak, sick, diseased. It were humane to remember this, and to go to our brothers and sisters, who, with sickly, diseased and misguided natures, are in vain seeking to satisfy their souls with the...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1896, Maxim Gorky declared cinema "the Kingdom of Shadows." In its silent, ashen-grey world, he saw a land of spectral, and ever since then cinema has had a special relationship with the haunted and the ghostly. Cinematic Ghosts is the first collection devoted to this subject, including fourteen new essays, dedicated to exploring the many permutations of the movies' phantoms. Cinematic Ghosts contains essays revisiting some classic ghost films within the genres of horror (The Haunting, 1963), romance (Portrait of Jennie, 1948), comedy (Beetlejuice, 1988) and the art film (Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives, 2010), as well as essays dealing with a number of films from around the world, from Sweden to China. Cinematic Ghosts traces the archetype of the cinematic ghost from the silent era until today, offering analyses from a range of historical, aesthetic and theoretical dimensions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the nineteenth-century craze for communicating with the dead, with historical photos included. Wealthy John Wetherbee sought business advice through supernatural means. Psychic Fannie Conant attributed her restored health to spirit intervention. Grieving theater manager Isaac B. Rich wanted to contact his deceased wife. While the individual motives for belief varied, spiritualism flourished in Boston from the first rumblings of the Civil War until the early twentieth century. Numerous clairvoyants claimed to bring messages from beyond the grave at seances and public meetings. While many earnestly believed in the movement, there were those who took advantage of naive Bostonians. Determined to expose charlatans, world-renowned magician Harry Houdini declared the famous medium and Bostonian Mina “Margery” Crandon a fake. This fascinating book explores the complex history of Boston’s spiritualist movement.
