Brock et al, eds. The year 1988 is the three-hundredth anniversary of the birth of Emanuel Swedenborg, scientist, philosopher, and theologian. While he was a man of scientific temperament and insight, it is the record of his spiritual journey that has had a subtle and pervasive influence on so many individuals who have helped shape our culture. This collection of 24 articles represents original research on Swedenborg and his influence. The 24 articles are organized into seven topical areas: European Literature; Philosophy \u0026amp; Social Science; Natural Science; The American Enlightenment; Religion; History; and the Arts. The work contains papers which trace the connections between Swedenborg and Kant, LeFanu (the ghost story writer), the elder James, Jung, and George Inness. Politics, psychology, cosmology, concepts of heaven, freemasonry, and the Chicago city plan are also addressed in this anthology. Such noted scholars as Inge Jonsson of the University of Stockholm, Gustaf O. S. Arrhenius of Scripps Institution of Oceanography (University of California), and Bernhard Lang of Paderborn are included among the authors. Written specifically for the anniversary year, these papers were presented at an international symposium at Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania, in February 1988. This important work deserves to be on the shelves of private, college, university, and public libraries. Illus.
