In 1864, and as a continuation of his studies, Allan Kardec revisited earlier interpretations of Christianity in "The Gospel as Explained by Spiritism", followed by "Heaven and Hell", a dissertation on the nature of divine justice through the plurality of existences (reincarnation), in 1865.
Finally, in 1867, Allan Kardec publishes "The Genesis", an exposition on the concordance of the Spiritist Doctrine with the discoveries of modern science and with the general tenor of the Mosaic record as explained by spirits.
Particularly noteworthy is that Allan Kardec was not a "medium" himself, and was consequently obliged to avail himself of the medianimity of others in obtaining the spirit communications from which these works evolved.

As Allan Kardec said, an erroneous idea still prevails about Spirits, in which they are believed to be vague and indefinite beings.
When we call the latter immaterial, it is, as Kardec noted, "because their essence differs from everything we know under the name of matter" and that "we can only define them by means of comparisons that are imperfect, that is to say, by an effort of the imagination.

 The Career of 'Allan Kardec' - III   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
The Kardec spirits' explanation for failure to remember former lives was that such remembrance was only permitted if and when it should serve some useful purpose and that such memories would usually emerge only gradually, perhaps only after a great period of time.
The Kardec teachers emphasised that reincarnation is usually a matter of conscious choice after an interval in the Spirit World that is as short or long as individual circumstances demand and that it often occurs because a spirit wishes to perform some charitable act for one less fortunate or perform a particular spiritual mission.
I mentioned earlier that there is evidence that the Kardec works were a major influence on certain of the founders of modern psychology and psychiatry and also that Rivail himself was especially keen that Spiritism should play a role in the treatment of mental illness.

 Allan Kardec - Spiritism
Allan Kardec (whose real name was Hyppolyte Leon Denizard Rivail) was a French educator that, despite his initial skepticism, started investigating some strange and unexplained phenomena that were occurring in France during the 1850's.
Very soon he realized, however, the importance and the serious aspects of those phenomena and started doing careful research through mediums (chanellers) who were said to receive messages from spirits.
The great work done by Kardec was to intensively question the spirits, searching for answers that could explain all the aspects of life.

The chief of these is that his work constitutes the only example of a modern appraisal of mediumship that has had (and continues to have) a truly obvious and major effect upon a very significant section of human society.
Yet, despite this, Kardec remains almost unknown or poorly understood by Spiritualists in Britain; the most common, and most fatal, error being that he was a medium himself and that the teachings were his own.
He required the spirits' answers to the questions that he posed to them to 'resolve all the difficulties of the question' even in relation to morality, ethics and 'divine' justice and he had, apparently, decided that the communicators who explained this in terms of reincarnation had satisfied this criterion in the most satisfactory way.

Kardec attended some demonstrations where spirits were contacted, thought the phenomena could be of great importance, and began his own investigations.
In the Introduction, Kardec gives his definition of a Spiritism as “the fundamental principle of the spiritist theory, or Spiritism, is the relation of the material world with spirits, or the beings of the invisible world.”
The history of the formation of our planet is written indelibly in the fossil record, which proves beyond all doubt that the six days of the creation were successive periods, each of which may have lasted millions of years.” This was a radical statement at the time he made it.

While I knew that Kardec, a French psychical investigator who left the material plane in 1869, has a big following in Brazil, I was not aware of the extent of his following and influence until I read this book.
The primary difference between Kardec's Spiritism and the Spiritualism of Great Britain and the United States, Bragdon points out, is that Spiritism openly embraces reincarnation and is more unified and action oriented.
