| Claude-Generated Themes: |
The Proceedings Of The Society for Psychical Research is the founding record of scientific psychical research. Established in London in 1882 by Henry Sidgwick, Frederic Myers, Edmund Gurney and their colleagues, the Society set out to examine the claims of Spiritualism, mesmerism and thought-transference by experiment and documentation rather than by faith, and its Proceedings became the discipline's principal archive. Mediums, trances, controls and seances fill its pages as objects of controlled study. Hypnotism and suggestion form a second and unusually heavy research front, with the Society reading the Nancy school of Hippolyte Bernheim even more closely than Jean-Martin Charcot's clinic in Paris, and the older mesmeric literature of somnambulism and clairvoyance survives from the early thought-transference trials. The question that organised the whole enterprise was whether anything Of The human personality survives bodily death. Where Theosophy appears it is as a case investigated and largely rejected, most famously in Richard Hodgson's report of 1885 on Helena Blavatsky's Mahatma phenomena. The series is the disciplinary anchor of parapsychology, and the American Society's Proceedings is its offspring.
