First Lecture on Emanuel Swedenborg and His Life
The article previews Rev and G Landenberger's two lectures on Emanuel Swedenborg, focusing on his birth in Stockholm on January 20 1688, his father Jesper Swedberg’s devout lineage, and Swedenborg’s early education and path to science, philosophy, and theology. It notes the shift in religious opinion toward Swedenborg and outlines the lecturer’s plan to cover his ancestry and youth before his later work.
