The Story of Anna Kingsford and Edward Maitland and of the new Gospel of Interpretation

The book recounts how Anna Kingsford and Edward Maitland came to produce a claimed Gospel of interpretation, presenting a biographical account of the genesis and early propagation of their writings. It emphasizes their intent to restore the spiritual and allegorical sense of Scripture rather than to supplant traditional religion, arguing for translation of ritual and organisation into inward, interpretive meanings. The authors critique reliance on the material and historical aspects of faith and propose reconciliation between intuition and intellect, prophet and priest. The volume serves as a concise installment of a larger biographical project and a defence of the interpretive programme.
