El Sol was a Spiritist paper published at Lima between 1891 and 1893, and it carries the Kardecist movement into Andean South America in Spanish. Its doctrine is the one Allan Kardec codified in Paris: communicating spirits, the moral progress of the soul through successive lives, and the périsprit — the semi-material envelope linking spirit and body, which appears in these pages in half a dozen Spanish spellings and at a density greater than in any other title in this archive. Around that doctrinal core run mediumship and materialisation as the movement's evidential side, devotional and consolatory prose on the soul and its survival, and a watchful attention to hypnotism, whose clinical authorities are named because their explanations had to be answered. Latin American Spiritism became one of the largest branches of the movement and remains so, and El Sol is a useful early record of it on the Pacific coast of South America. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
