Timeline
1881, "A. P. Sinnett's Occult World, published in 1881, not only gave a fascinating account of [Blavatsky's] occult activities in India but created a widespread interest in circles ready for an alternative to spiritualism, which was beginning to lose its novelty" (Howe 7).

1887 May, Blavatsky moved to London.
