Description
Toronto: Toronto Theosophical Society, 1928. Bound Volume of 12 issues. 27x21cm, each issue 8pp. Photographs, advertisements. Inscribed by editor and founder of the journal, Kartar Singh to Roy [Mitchell] on the ffep and dated in 1928. Black cloth over boards, upper cover stamped in gilt. Pages toned, some wrinkling to bottom edges of first few issues else clean internally. Binding frayed at spine ends, with some scuffs and staining to covers. Very good. Third volume of this official journal of the Toronto Theosophical Society which began in 1925 and ran at least through 1950.  The paper was founded by an important member of and advocate for the Indian community in Canada, Kartar Singh (1889-1967).  Singh started several papers in Canada with the goal of helping other Indians adapt to Canadian life.  His first effort to these ends was the first East Indian periodical published in the country, The Samsar, which was printed in English and Punjabi beginning in 1913.  Singh continued his efforts through the Toronto Theosophical Society which he joined in 1918, acting as librarian and founding the theosophy library, treasurer, and secretary.  In 1925, he founded the Toronto Theosophical News, which was a scaled down version of a larger publication in which he was involved, called The Canadian Theosophist.  The TTN consisted of news, essays, announcements, stories and poems.  Through its pages and those of The Canadian Theosophist, Singh worked to acquaint Canadians with the achievements and culture of South Asians.  Singh left Toronto for Vancouver in 1928 where he helped Sikhs in British Columbia become permanent citizens, and founded the India and Canada magazine. This copy of the TTS is inscribed to theatre figure, Roy Mitchell (1884-1944), who played an important role in the little theatre movement in Canada and the United States.  Mitchell was also a prominent Theosophist in Toronto, joining the TTS in 1919, publishing several texts including Theosophy in Action, and incorporating the belief system in his theater work.  These issues of the TTN advertise a course of summer lectures by Mitchell to happen in July of 1928 at the request of a great many members.  The volume is inscribed by Singh to Mitchell during that visit.  This publication provides an important look at the theosophy movement in Canada through the lens of improving Canadian-Indian relations via cultural exposure.  It is also quite scarce, with OCLC citing holdings for any issues at the University of Waterloo, ON, and the Library and Archives in Ottawa.  .
