Description
H. P. Blavatsky edited Lucifer, a Theosophical magazine whose provocative title meant light-bringer, not the devil of popular fear. Volume one gathers the movement's monthly output at its combative start. Essays on occult philosophy, Eastern religion, and the hidden side of science fill its pages.
Readers watch Theosophy talking to itself and to its critics month by month: manifestos, reviews, correspondence, and defenses of unpopular ideas. A magazine preserves what books smooth over, including fashions, quarrels, and enthusiasms of a young movement. For historians of modern occultism, the first volume of Lucifer is primary evidence of how Blavatsky presented her cause to the Victorian public.
