Blavatsky is a work of religious and philosophical analysis written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on exploring and critiquing the origins, doctrines, and practices of Christianity, especially as they relate to ancient philosophies, comparative religion, and esoteric traditions. The likely central theme is a comparative and critical examination of religious dogma, the origins of Christian theology, and the persistence of mystical, magical, and occult traditions within organized religion. The opening of "Isis Unveiled" establishes the book's critical perspective toward institutional Christianity, clearly distinguishing between the original teachings of Jesus and what the author sees as their corruption by church authorities over history. Blavatsky introduces her intent to scrutinize theological Christianity, particularly its dogmatic and authoritarian tendencies, while expressing respect for personal faith and virtue. She highlights the divisions within Christianity, the proliferation of denominations and sects, and the vast resources spent on religious institutions in the United States. The opening chapters promise a broad survey of comparative theology, the adaptation of pagan elements by Christian doctrine, the Catholic Church's attitude toward miracles and spiritual phenomena, and the deep roots of occult practices within the clergy—framing the coming chapters as an investigation into the true origins and nature of religious belief and its impact on society.
