Book Description
In this, one of the rare colour editions of 'Thought-Forms', Annie Besant and Charles W. Leadbeater describe how the human aura changes constantly in size, form and colour, depending an individual's mental and emotional state. The book features the original fifty-eight full colour illustrations that give the reader a direct experience of a psychic's impressions of the aura, what Besant herself called "the living light of other worlds." For Besant and Leadbeater, thoughts were as real and powerful as words or deeds, their hope being that the vibrant images would allow everyone to "realise the nature and power of his thoughts, acting as a stimulus to the noble, a curb on the base." Born in London on 1st October 1847, Annie Besant was described as a 'Diamond Soul', a complex mix of spiritual seeker and social reformer, advocating progressive ideas on such topics as education, trade unions, birth control, female suffrage and Irish and Indian self- rule. Besant eventually settled in the sub-Continent, embraced Theosophy, and wrote widely on the religious movement's views on karma, reincarnation and the purpose of human existence. She was herself blessed with spiritual gifts, one of which - the ability to view an individual's aura or psychic energy field - forms the basis of this present work. Charles W. Leadbeater was ordained as an Anglican priest but gradually felt drawn towards gnosticism and theosophy. He met Annie Besant in 1894, a few years after she became president of the Theosophical Society, and collaborated with her in exploring such shared interests as the human aura, aspects of the soul and occult chemistry."

Influence and Intertextuality in Literary History
Author: Jay Clayton
Publisher: Univ of Wisconsin Press
ISBN: 9780299130343
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 364
Book Description
This collection explores and clarifies two of the most contested ideas in literary theory - influence and intertextuality. The study of influence tends to centre on major authors and canonical works, identifying prior documents as sources or contexts for a given author. Intertextuality, on the other hand, is a concept unconcerned with authors as individuals; it treats all texts as part of a network of discourse that includes culture, history and social practices as well as other literary works. In thirteen essays drawing on the entire spectrum of English and American literary history, this volume considers the relationship between these two terms across the whole range of their usage.
