Beschreibung
Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death is a landmark synthesis of Victorian psychical research, arguing that the "subliminal self" extends beyond ordinary consciousness and may persist after death. Moving through hypnosis, automatism, telepathy, apparitions, trance mediumship, and reported communications from the dead, Myers writes in a capacious, evidentiary style: part philosophical treatise, part case archive, part speculative psychology. The work belongs to the late nineteenth-century moment when science, religion, and literature contested the limits of materialism. F. W. H. Myers was a Cambridge-trained classicist, poet, and co-founder of the Society for Psychical Research. His humanistic education and scientific ambitions shaped a prose at once elegant and methodical. Troubled by reductive accounts of mind, and encouraged by decades of investigations with figures such as Henry Sidgwick and Edmund Gurney, Myers sought to give paranormal testimony disciplined intellectual form. This book is recommended to readers interested in the history of psychology, spiritualism, consciousness studies, and Victorian intellectual culture. Though many conclusions remain controversial, its imaginative reach and documentary seriousness make it indispensable for understanding modern debates about mind, evidence, and immortality.
