GUTIERREZ MUELLER, Beatriz. Helios Magazine: Spiritism Topics, Vocabulary, Politics and Philosophy (1911-1913). Bibliographica [online]. 2023, vol.6, n.1, pp.255-290.  Epub 25-Nov-2024. ISSN 2594-178X.  https://doi.org/10.22201/iib.2594178xe.2023.1.344.

Among the many Spiritist magazines in Mexico, Helios stood out as a successor to El Siglo Espírita. It reached its splendor thanks to the rise to power of one of its most prominent associate members: Francisco I. Madero. When he triumphed in May 1911, the review remained in the hands of his co-religionists until his assassination in 1913. This paper addresses that process, as well as the subjects, specialized vocabulary, authors, and concerns of the writers who collaborated on it and El Siglo Espírita, its aforementioned predecessor. Thus, the article elucidates what this religion or doctrine represented for the Spiritists of Mexico of the time, from its philosophical and experimental tendencies to its ethical proposal.

Palabras llave : Mexican Spiritist magazines; Helios magazine; Maderista Spiritist; Francisco I. Madero’s government; 20^th century.
