2012
Paralysis of all types was treated. \"A young lady was suddenly seized with paralysis of both lower extremities. After fifty days of ineffectual medical treatment, galvanism was resorted to. The positive conducting wire, from a battery of fifty-eight small pairs of copper and zinc, was carried round one of the paralyzed limbs, and the negative was brought in contact with tin foil, placed on the instep ... After 18 sittings, there was a perfect cure.\" Case histories from various hospitals are given. \"Chorea, or St. Vitus's dance has been treated successfully by the uninterrupted current of the battery, and by the electric spark drawn from the spine of the patient while seated on the insulating stool.\"

‘Partakers of the Divine Nature’: Ripley’s Discourses and the Transcendental Annus Mirabilis
2018
In declaring 1836 the “Annus Mirabilis” of Transcendentalism, Perry Miller captured the emerging vitality of a new religious movement, described by Convers Francis as “the spiritual philosophy”. Francis first listed George Ripley’s Discourses on the Philosophy of Religion (1836) as a sign of the new movement. Ripley’s book, strongly influenced by William Ellery Channing’s sermon “Likeness to God” (1828), captured the metamorphosis of Transcendentalism from its Unitarian theological roots, and sheds light on the Transcendentalists’ theory of religious experience. Ripley presented Transcendentalism as the purist form of Christian theology. This new religious awareness enabled a realization of the divine “inner nature”, and described a religious life dedicated to the practice of spiritual self-cultivation. This new awareness brought with it “universal love”, and a vision of what it meant to partake of divinity.

Everybody else in this posh anteroom of hell - amiably mocked by set designer Scott Pask as the overly decorated lair of a rich lady with a doting husband and a lot of time on her hands - also has a vested interest in the fate of \"The Golden Egg.\"
