It is easy to cast the Swedish mystic, Emmanuel Swedenborg, as some lone, deranged seer, living on the fringes of society, conversing with angels and visiting heaven and hell. Not true: Swedenborg was an upstanding member of society - he was even a member of parliament - and by all accounts he was a pleasant chap. This collection of essays further de-marginalises him in terms of his beliefs by situating him in a recognised lineage of mystical thought.
