The Phoenix

A journal projected by A. P. Sinnett in March 1883; he planned to return to India once the required capital was available. This records a proposal, not a confirmed publication.  (B. de Zirkoff, BCW 4:xxix)
A. P. Sinnett’s projected publication was discussed in K. H.’s letters in the summer of 1883; a letter received on 8 October 1883 declared the venture a failure.  (B. de Zirkoff, BCW 5:xxiv-xxvi)

About the title:

The phoenix is the mythical bird reborn after its death, a longstanding image of renewal and resurrection. This explains the title’s mythological association; the sources consulted do not establish Sinnett’s specific reason for choosing it. Encyclopaedia Britannica: Phoenix (reproduced article)
