"The Story of Anna Kingsford and Edward Maitland and of the New Gospel of Interpretation" by Edward Maitland is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This work delves into the lives and spiritual journeys of Anna Kingsford, a pioneering figure in the field of mysticism and women's rights, and Edward Maitland, her collaborator, as they explore the concept of a "New Gospel of Interpretation." The book provides insights into their profound mission, which aims to reinterpret scriptures and spiritual teachings in a way that aligns with a more enlightened understanding of existence. At the start of the narrative, the background of both Kingsford and Maitland is introduced, highlighting their early lives and esoteric inclinations. Kingsford, an MD with a mystical vision of her purpose, faces societal limitations as a woman in her quest for knowledge and spiritual fulfillment. The text recounts her growing awareness of a divine mission, bolstered by her prophetic experiences and the impact of her marriage. Maitland shares his parallel journey, marked by intellectual rebellion against dogmatic teachings and a deep desire for spiritual clarity. Their union represents a convergence of minds dedicated to addressing deep philosophical questions and confronting the materialism prevalent in their time, setting the stage for the spiritual revelations and teachings they aim to convey through their work.
