Charles Fauvety

Charles Fauvety

(French: Charles Fauvety)

French writer, editor and political activist (1813-1894), associated with Saint-Simonianism, Éliphas Lévi and Proudhon. He joined the Theosophical Society about 1883 and edited the Bulletin Mensuel of the Société Scientifique d’Études Psychologiques, which published several articles by H. P. Blavatsky. (BCW 2:528-529).

Participated in the 1883 Paris controversy on occultism and Spiritualism. In Science et Théosophie, ou deux Civilizations en Présence, linked H. P. Blavatsky’s work with a Saint-Simonian prophecy of a woman uniting East and West. (B. de Zirkoff, BCW 4:479-480)

Published H. P. Blavatsky’s letters of 17 April and 17 May 1883, although her letter to D. A. Courmes of 17 July indicates that she had not intended them for publication. Her extensive defence of occultism appeared in his journal’s July issue with his response Aux Théosophes de l’Occultisme. (B. de Zirkoff, BCW 5:1, BCW 5:6)
