Theos-Talk Archives (July 2011 Message tt00071)

John Algeo (in his article titled "Theosophy" in the
ENCYCLOPEDIA OF THEOSOPHY) writes concerning Modern
Theosophy:

"The Theosophical Society was founded by H.P. Blavatsky,
Henry S. Olcott, William Q. Judge and others, but 
Theosophy derives from H.P. Blavatsky alone.  Her
writings and those of her teachers, as contained
in THE MAHATMA LETTERS, are the basis of all modern
Theosophy...."

"...Her writing career was brief, considering the extent
of its influence on modern thought.  Her first significant
work was ISIS UNVEILED, published in 1877.   Her writing
came to an end with her death in 1891, having lasted
a mere fourteen years, during which she produced the
equivalent of some twenty-one large-sized volumes."
