Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of Emanuel Swedenborg: Together With a Brief Synopsis of His Writings, Both Philosophical and Theological During the few past years many biographies of Swedenborg have been offered to the public. Dr. Tafel, of Tubingen, in 1839, collected into one volume the testimonies of Swedenborgs personal friends, his letters, and various documents relating to him which were scattered through many volumes. This "Book of Documents" was translated into English, and edited by the Rev. J. H. Smithson, of Manchester, in 1841; and was again reprinted in America and re-edited by Professor Bush, of New York, in 1847. From this "Book of Documents," all the biographies which have appeared, have been more or less indebted. Nathanael Hobart, of Boston, arranged these documents into a connected biographical form, interspersed with judicious remarks of his own, and published it as a "Life of Swedenborg." This "Life" has passed through three editions, and well deserves the success it has attained. In 1849, Elihu Rich published, in London, "A Biographical Sketch of Emanuel Swedenborg." The edition was exhausted in the course of a few months, and the work has not since been reprinted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
