Collected Writings VOLUME III
FOREWORD xxi
FOREWORD TO VOLUME THREE
Most of the material in the present Volume appeared in print in collected form for the first
time in 1935, when it was published by Rider & Co. in London, under the title of The Complete
Works of H. P. Blavatsky. As was the case with the original Volumes I and II of the Series, a
considerable portion of the stock of Volume III perished in the London “blitz” during the second
World War. As a result of this, these earlier Volumes have been unobtainable for many years.
Discovery of hitherto unknown writings from H. P. B.’s pen required that the material be
somewhat differently distributed, as far as the four original Volumes are concerned. The present
Volume is made up of H. P. B.’s writings during the years of 1881 and 1882. It contains
therefore some of the material of the original Volume II and most of the material of the original
Volume III.
The text contained now in Volume III has been checked with the original sources of
publication, and most of the quoted matter compared with the originals and corrected whenever
necessary. Some new material has been incorporated from the Archives at Adyar. A number of
explanatory notes and comments have been added by the Compiler to clarify points of
Theosophical history. Biographical and Bibliographical information has been collected in the
Appendix, as is the case with all the Volumes of this Series, and a copious Index has been
prepared.
The Compiler wishes to express his gratitude to all those who have helped in the preparation
of this Volume. Their continued interest and helpful assistance are gratefully acknowledged.
Their names, as given in the Foreword to Vol. II, apply to the present Volume as well.
