- Opis:
- One of the most interesting examples of the Theosophists’ campaign of transgressive imagination in Easternand Western culture is the movement’s headquarters – The Theosophical Society International Headquarters in Adyar (Chennai, Tamil Nadu), called the “vision of hope for mankind”. This remarkable project has so far failed to attract any comprehensive research or permeate the extensive sources of Theosophical literature or subject literature. The aim of this paper is to highlight the most specific elements of this utopia – partly imagined, partially realised – which was intended by its creators to be an inspiration for the coming new era of the world.
