An E-Verser writes in for your guidance:

“I’m interested in doing a cross-curricular project (RE, History and Art) on “New Age” religion with some of my students, but I want to do some research of my own first.

Specifically, I’m interested in trying to trace some kind of genealogy of modern new age ideas from theosophy/anthroposophy, Jung all the way through to modern spiritual self-help and stuff like Deepak Chopra.

What I’m trying to find (and can’t) is some kind of detached and scholarly history of this whole phenomenon which sets out to chart what ideas, individuals and trends have influenced others and of key motifs and themes that keep emerging.

Can you put out a request to E-Versers to see if anyone is aware of sensible and reputable works that loosely fit this description?”
