Theosophy is about knowing God through direct experience. It is also comparitive study of philosophy, religion, and science. So a theosopher usually holds an eclectic view on the nature of wisdom.
No its more like a philosophical category. Theosophists get blamed for the activities of those in the new age movement, but they really are not the promoters of the new age.
Kabbalah which is the oral tradition of mysticism among the jews is a kind of theosophy which is about 2000 years old.
