During Victor Hugo’s exile at the Isle of Jersey, the place he and his friends and family escaped the reign of Napoléon III, he carried out “table-tapping” séances, transcribing 1000s of channeled conversations with entities from the past. between his discarnate viewers have been Shakespeare, Plato, Hannibal, Rousseau, Galileo, Sir Walter Scott, and Jesus. in accordance with the transcripts, Jesus, in the course of his 3 visits, condemns Druidism, faults Christianity, and indicates a brand new faith with Hugo as its prophet.

To the skeptic, a few of the “conversations” could seem self-serving--at most sensible, the unconscious needs of the naïve contributors. yet writer John Chambers areas Hugo’s experiments firmly within the culture of visionary literature and psychic exploration, aligning these stories with the poetry of William Blake, the table-tapping studies of the Fox sisters, and the channeled writings of the good modern day Pulitzer Prize-winning poet James Merrill, whose spirits’ utterances uncannily resemble these of Hugo’s. Hugo’s transcriptions are the lacking hyperlink among the early 19th century’s fascination with the kabbalistic Zohar, reincarnation, and the writings of the Illuminati and the increase of spiritualism and the societies for the learn of psychic phenomena within the latter 19th and early 20th centuries.
