Produktbeschreibung
"Human Personality and its Survival of Bodily Death" is a seminal work by Frederic William Henry Myers, a prominent figure in the field of psychical research and a co-founder of the Society for Psychical Research (SPR). Published posthumously in 1903, the book explores the concept of human personality and its potential continuity beyond physical death. Myers delves into various aspects of human consciousness, including telepathy, mediumship, and mystical experiences, aiming to provide evidence for the survival of consciousness after death. He presents numerous case studies and anecdotal evidence to support his argument, drawing from his extensive research and investigations into psychic phenomena. The book is divided into two volumes, with the first volume focusing on the nature of personality and its relation to the physical body, while the second volume delves into the evidence for post-mortem survival and the implications of this phenomenon. Myers' work has had a significant impact on the study of consciousness and the afterlife, influencing subsequent researchers and investigators in the field of parapsychology. Despite being published over a century ago, "Human Personality and its Survival of Bodily Death" remains a foundational text in the exploration of the mysteries of human consciousness and the possibility of life after death.
Autorenporträt
Frederic William Henry Myers, commonly known as F. W. H. Myers, was a classical scholar, poet, philologist, and one of the founding figures of the Society for Psychical Research. Born on February 6, 1843, in Keswick, Cumberland, Myers was an intellectual figure of the Victorian era deeply involved in the exploration of the human mind and the potential for its survival beyond physical death. His most significant work, 'Human Personality and Its Survival of Bodily Death,' published posthumously in 1903, is a comprehensive two-volume treatise examining a wide range of phenomena associated with the human psyche, including telepathy, apparitions, and trance states. Myers' literary style reflects his scholarly background and his commitment to rigorous analysis, which is evident in the depth and detail with which he investigates psychological and paranormal subjects. His contributions to psychical research have been influential in both psychology and parapsychology, as he sought to bridge the gap between science and spirituality. He relentlessly pursued empirical evidence for the supernatural, and his work remains a foundational text for those who believe in the continuity of consciousness beyond the physical form.
