History Of Spiritism In Brazil
Kardecist spiritism is the main form of Spiritualism (movement), spiritualism in Brazil. Following the emergence of modern spiritualist events in Hydesville, New York, United States, via the mediumship of the Fox sisters (1848), the phenomena quickly spread to Europe, where in France the so-called "Table-turning, turning tables" became a popular fad. In 1855 in France this type of phenomenon caught the attention of the educator Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail. As a result of his research he published the first edition of ''The Spirits' Book'' (Paris, 1857), under the pseudonym "''Allan Kardec''". The foundation of the spiritist doctrine is contained in this book and four others published later: ''The Mediums' Book'', 1861; ''The Gospel According to Spiritism'', 1864; ''Heaven and Hell (Kardec book), Heaven and Hell'', 1865; ''The Genesis According to Spiritism'', 1868.

Kardecist Spiritism
Kardecist spiritism, also known as Kardecism or Spiritism, is a reincarnationist and Spiritualism (movement), spiritualist doctrine established in France in the mid-19th century by writer and educator Hippolyte Léon Denizard Rivail (known by his pen name Allan Kardec). Kardec considered his doctrine to derive from a Christian perspective. He described a cycle by which a spirit supposedly returns to material existence after the death of the body in which it had dwelled, as well as the evolution it undergoes during this process. Kardecism emerged as a new religious movement in tandem with spiritualism. The notions and practices associated with spiritual communication have been disseminated throughout North America and Europe since the 1850s. Kardec coined the term ''spiritism'' in 1857 and defined it as "the doctrine founded on the existence, manifestations, and teachings of spirits". Kardec claimed that spiritism combines scientific, philosophical, and religious aspects of the t ...
