Legacies of Theosophy - Conference held in Univ of Sydney - Oct 2010

Last year there was a conference held at the University of Sydney and a
brief summary of the papers presented/discussed is now available. The
topics mentioned are interesting. I hope, a pdf file of the papers would be
made available soon. I hope the University does not publish a fat volume at
unaffordable price, as is the norm with all recent theosophical
publications, keeping them out of reach of anyone who is not a fat cat.
Here is quote of introduction and a link for full summary.

 This collection of papers was inspired by a two-day conference held at the
University of Sydney in October 2010, and organised by the immediate past
president of SSLA, Associate Professor Vrasidas Karalis. Titled âThe
Legacies of Theosophy: Unveiling Mysteries of the Creative Imaginary,â the
symposium considered the vast inheritance of Theosophy in art and culture.
This volume itself is a varied and profound look at the idea of creativity
and imagination as regards the development of religions. Specifically, of
course, each article links back to a connection with the Theosophical
Society. Because of this, each sheds new light on the development of
religious and cultural ideas around the start of the twentieth century and
beyond.
