Swedenborg's Journal of Dreams (Wilkinson translation)


Ceci est une traduction de: Swedenborgs drömmar

Traduit en English


Description:

In 1743 and 1744, Swedenborg, ever the scientist, recorded a long series of his dreams in a diary. He was undergoing something of a spiritual crisis, feeling a call to propound a new formulation of Christian thought, but at the same time feeling unready and unworthy to do it. It was written in Swedish, and - as Anna Fredrika Ehrenborg put it - many of the entries sounds as though they were made by "a man in his nightshirt".

À propos de cette traduction:

In this journal from 1744, Swedenborg logged his dreams and then the spiritual experiences that he started having. It wasn't intended for publication. Instead, with his growing interest in human psychology, it seems to be an attempt by Swedenborg to start tracking and analyzing his own experiences as data.
