Book excerpt: "The history of Gurdjieff in newspaper articles, magazines, and books during his lifetime traces his public reputation in what is said of him on the world stage. Some of writers were reporters, other followers and visitors to the Institute, and still others were persons intrigued by social and religious fads of the day ... Nonetheless, the articles printed between 1914 and 1949, the year of his death, constitute a topical history of his life and his work in a running account of Gurdjieff's changing public image as a man and a teacher, and provide an insight into the way his teaching was perceived from an age in which theosophy was a prevalent intellectual occupation"--Back cover.
