Borderland (1893–1897) was W. T. Stead's popular London quarterly, a deliberately democratic survey of everything at the edge of the psychic — spiritualism and mediumship above all, but also hypnotism and suggestion, clairvoyance and animal magnetism, occult and Theosophical currents, astrology, and spirit photography. Its dominant register is spiritualist phenomena canvassed for the general reader, framed as an inclusive psychical inquiry rather than a laboratory science, with an eye to the movement's public standing and its power 'to appeal to all classes.' Where the Society for Psychical Research addressed specialists, Stead set out to bring the whole borderland of the unseen to a mass audience. Across the taxonomy it reads first as spiritualism and popular psychical research, with substantial hypnotic, mesmeric, and occult veins and lighter astrological and spirit-photography interests.
