Tiffany's Monthly, edited by Joel Tiffany in New York from 1856 to 1859, was a philosophical organ of American Spiritualism that took mediumship and spirit-communion as the empirical foundation for a systematic 'harmonial' religious philosophy. Trance and physical mediumship appear as evidential phenomena, and the magazine argues its spiritual harmony against the orthodoxy of the churches. Beneath the Spiritualist frame runs the antebellum reform substratum — phrenology in the Gall tradition and mesmeric magnetism — that shaped the movement's early self-understanding. It reads less as a séance-report sheet than as a reasoned exposition of Spiritualism as a rival religious science. Generated by Claude from the periodical's digitized text; a thematic reading, not a bibliographic description. |
