Letters of WQJ, compiled by Dara Eklund
Russian edition of WQJ Collected Writings

William Quan Judge was one of the principal Founders of the Theosophical Society. His writings are among the clearest explications of the principles of Theosophy.

Periodicals

Judge served as editor of the periodical, The Path, from 1886-1896. After the American Section of the Theosophical Society was formed on October 30, 1886, The Path became its official journal. Quoting from the first issue, April 1886, Judge gives a reason for producing the publication:

to try on the one hand to point out to their fellows a Path in which they have found hope for man, and on the other to investigate all systems of ethics and philosophy claiming to lead directly to such a path, regardless of the possibility that the highway may, after all, be in another direction from the one in which they are looking.

In 1889 Judge inaugurated a magazine for inquirers – The Theosophical Forum – in which he expressed a deep understanding of the technicalities of Theosophy.
