Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Writings of Swedenborg: Containing the Following Treatises, Viz;, The Last Judgment, the Earths in the Universe, the Athanasian Creed, and Also Divine Love and Wisdom The present edition of this work is a reprint of the last English edition (1839.) The work has received a new translation. In the Advertisement, it is said - "As regards the translation, we have striven to be faithful to the original, and to give correctly-verbal, rather than doctrinal renderings, of the author´s abstract terms (such as naturale, spirituale, &c. &c.); it being no part of a translator´s function to lead other persons to look at the subject through the medium of his notions of it. We have simply endeavored to pour the author´s ideas from Latin into English vessels, and we hope it will be found, that but little of meaning or of force has been wasted in the process of transfusion. It is proper to mention here, that the word "animus" ("innumerabiles affectiones constituunt animum")has been carried into the translation, from the extreme difficulty of rendering it into English; since "mind" by which it has been usually translated, refers too exclusively to the intellect to convey the meaning at all, and "disposition´ although much nearer to the mark, is a rendering which does not admit of uniform adoption. The reader will also detect a few new and unusual expressions, which we have not adopted without a deliberate conviction of their necessity, and which we just glance at, to prevent him from mistaking them, for the results of haste, or mere unwittingness."
