zoist

The Zoist's first edition, published in January 1843, was launched into a market hungry for knowledge and information.

(The second part is a reply to attacks made in The Zoist.)

A constant aspect of The Zoist's rational approach was its stress on the power of the imagination.

The Zoist, printed on high quality paper, issued quarterly to its subscribers, was also published for a wider readership in annual volumes.

Lady Tarragon stated, "Zoist Kyan was escorted into the Speaker's Antechamber.

"Zoist Kyan sought the Stewards Guild and asked for a price to assassinate a Master Mage.

The Zoist was a materialist journal; it repudiated metaphysics and argued that everything - including human thinking - could be explained through the laws of the physical universe .

Engledue was a strong advocate of mesmerism and, with John Elliotson, co-founded The Zoist; and remained its joint editor until publication ceased in 1856.

In partnership with Engledue, he began publishing The Zoist in 1843, and, in 1849 founded the London Mesmeric Infirmary.

The following morning on the battlefield, before the sides joined, Master Violet, who had been a long time friend of Zoist Kyan, convened a meeting of the Mages Council.

According to Gauld (1992, pp. 219-243), apart from its concentration on mesmerism and phrenology, The Zoist was one of the principal sources for information, discussion, and education in the following domains of interest:

Lady Lysandra, the current Black Master Mage was made a target for assassins, first by Mordred and then by the previous Master Zoist Kyan of the Black, a Drow.

Elliotson was an opponent of capital punishment, and argued, within the Zoist, based upon his phrenological analysis of the heads of executed murderers, that not only was phrenology true, but also that, from this, capital punishment was futile as a deterrent.

Given Wakley's implacable opposition to Elliotson, it is not surprising that, from time to time, "The Lancet continued to fulminate against the mesmerists" maintaining that "all those connected with The Zoist were 'lepers', and doctors who practised mesmerism, traitors ."

In response to a query from "A Patient", the editors of the The Zoist, whilst assuring the enquirer that "we feel as much as he does the difficulty of procuring good mesmerisers", proceeded to set down a set of positive and negative selection criteria: "Choice of a Mesmeriser".
