Definición

  • The word theosophy, “divine wisdom,” is ancient, but the term is now most frequently used in reference to the teachings and work of the Theosophical Society, established in New York in 1875. Its principal founders were Henry Steel Olcott (1832–1907), the first president, who served until his death; Helena Petrovna Blavatsky (1831–1891), the leading articulator, in voluminous writings, of the Theosophical worldview; and William Quan Judge (1851–1896), a later president of the Theosophical Society in America.
