Sociedade Espírita de Buenos Aires

Record summary

A Sociedad Espiritista de Buenos Aires is commonly associated with the organized spread of Kardecist Spiritism in Argentina during the late nineteenth century. It offers a comparative case of urban association culture, Spanish-language doctrinal publication, and the negotiation of Spiritism with Catholic and medical criticism. Records may include statutes, meeting notices, lectures, and printed communications. The institution’s founding date and continuity should be verified carefully because Argentine Spiritist histories sometimes merge several Buenos Aires groups or retrospectively assign later organizational identities to earlier circles.
