A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Emanuel Swedenborg was a Swedish scientist, philosopher, theologian, and religious visionary whose writings shaped one of the most unusual bodies of Christian thought in the eighteenth century. Born in Stockholm in 1688, he first became known for work in science, engineering, mining, anatomy, and natural philosophy before turning increasingly toward theology and spiritual experience.After what he described as a spiritual awakening, Swedenborg devoted the rest of his life to interpreting Scripture, describing the spiritual world, and developing a vast theological system centered on divine love, divine wisdom, human freedom, correspondence, heaven and hell, and the inward meaning of Christian revelation. His writings influenced religious thinkers, mystics, reformers, poets, philosophers, and later movements interested in visionary Christianity and spiritual psychology. Britannica notes that Swedenborg devoted enormous energy to interpreting the Bible and relating his claimed experiences of the world of spirits and angels.
