Theodore Flournoy Livres
Théodore Flournoy fut un professeur de psychologie qui explora les royaumes mystérieux de la parapsychologie et du spiritisme. Il acquit une renommée pour son étude approfondie de la médium Helen Smith, à travers laquelle il examina des phénomènes tels que les souvenirs de vies antérieures et l'inconscient. Flournoy interpréta ses épanchements comme des manifestations de cryptamnésie et de l'imagination du subconscient, réfutant ainsi les hypothèses spirites. Son travail mit en lumière des explications psychologiques aux capacités médiumniques, y compris la suggestion et la télépathie émanant du subconscient.
