Allan Kardec

Allan Kardec was a 19th-century French educator and philosopher, best known as the founder of Spiritism. He believed in the existence of spirits and sought to understand their nature and influence on human life. Kardec compiled insights from various spiritual mediums into foundational texts, the most notable being "The Spirits' Book." His work explored themes like existence after death, moral development, and the relationship between the physical and spiritual worlds. Kardec's ideas contributed significantly to spiritualism and continue to influence various religious and philosophical movements today.
