Summary "Poems of Progress" by Lizzie Doten is a collection of poetry written in the late 19th century. The work delves into themes of spirituality, human experience, and the eternal quest for truth and understanding, likely drawing inspiration from the author's involvement in the Spiritualist movement. Through her verses, Doten explores complex emotions and societal issues, reflecting a belief in the transformative power of love and the potential of the human spirit. At the start of the collection, the author addresses the reader with a "Declaration of Faith," firmly asserting her commitment to Spiritualism and the positive impact it has had on society. She defends the movement against criticisms, stressing its focus on the purification of the human spirit and the importance of love and compassion. The opening portion establishes a philosophical foundation for the poems to follow, which will likely explore the interplay between life, death, and the essence of existence.
