Paperback original. Condición: Fine (as new) copy. First edition (& 1st printing). No 19: 108 pages. Ireland of the late nineteenth century was awash in reawakened interest in Irish legends and folklore, craft and custom, language and art; the men and women whose works would come to define the ensuing Celtic Literary Revival often concerned themselves with a belief in the authoritative wisdom of ancient traditions and mythology, and with these fervent beliefs, they propelled Ireland toward nationhood. That a new spiritual movement could hold such sway over young minds in late nineteenth-century Ireland comes as no surprise. Theosophy was formally established in New York in 1875. Its core tenets are based on the teachings of Russian émigrée Helena Blavatsky (1831-1891), who outlined her thoughts - as conveyed to her by spiritual adepts known as the Masters - in Isis Unveiled (1877) and The Secret Doctrine (1888). Inspired by a meeting with Madame Blavatsky in London, Charles Johnston (1867-1931), along with W. B. Yeats, founded the Dublin Hermetic Society. This small group of likeminded people grew, and by April 1886, Johnston obtained the charter to found the Dublin Lodge of the Theosophical Society. This issue is a sort of collage, a portrait of the Dublin Theosophical scene, from its early days to its schism and eventual dissolution. The aim is not to explore ideas of Theosophy so much as the community and literature that emanated from it - the spirit of the age. The central figure in this tapestry is A.E. (1867-1935), perhaps Theosophy's most ardent advocate. His earliest essays and poetry appeared in Theosophical instruments such as Lucifer and The Irish Theosophist, while in later life his accumulated respect and wisdom would be called upon to guide the burgeoning republic - though not always heeded. A.E. haunts every article in this issue, even if he does not appear directly in each.…
