Produktbeschreibung

In 'The Story of Atlantis and the Lost Lemuria,' W.

The book employs a rich, engaging literary style that blends speculative history with vivid storytelling, inviting readers to embark on a journey through time and consciousness. Scott-Elliot's endeavor is not merely to recount legends but to analyze their profound implications on human development and spiritual evolution, positioning these lost civilizations within a broader metaphysical framework.

Autorenporträt

William Scott-Elliot (1849-1919) was a theosophist who elaborated Helena Blavatsky's concept of root races in several publications, most notably The Story of Atlantis (1896) and The Lost Lemuria (1904), later combined in 1925 into a single volume called The Story of Atlantis and the Lost Lemuria. In 1893 he married Matilda (Maude) Louise Travers (1859-1929). W. Scott-Elliot came into contact with theosophist Charles Webster Leadbeater who said he received knowledge about ancient Atlantis and Lemuria from the Theosophical Masters by "astral clairvoyance." Leadbeater transmitted his clairvoyant findings to Scott-Elliot, who undertook scholarly research to back them up.
