I have written a
blog post about the psychic photographs of Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu (1838-1907). A polymath with wide interests, today he is
perhaps best known for the remarkable Iulia Hasdeu Castle at Câmpina, named
after his highly accomplished daughter who died at the age of 18, leaving her
promise unfulfilled.
As a result of his
bereavement, Hasdeu threw himself into Spiritualism, an element of which took
the form of making psychic images. A
number of these have been published, and I have written about his efforts in
this area. The article is on my other
blog here:
