Swedenborg, A Hermetic Philosopher: Being A Sequel To Remarks On Alchemy And The Alchemists by Ethan Allen Hitchcock is a book that explores the life and works of Emanuel Swedenborg, a Swedish scientist, philosopher, and theologian who lived in the 18th century. The book is a sequel to Hitchcock’s earlier work on alchemy and the alchemists, and it delves deeper into the esoteric and mystical beliefs of Swedenborg.The book begins with a biographical sketch of Swedenborg, tracing his early life and education, his scientific achievements, and his eventual turn towards spiritualism and mysticism. Hitchcock then examines Swedenborg’s major works, including his theological writings, his studies of the afterlife, and his theories on the nature of the universe.Throughout the book, Hitchcock explores the connections between Swedenborg’s ideas and the Hermetic tradition, a school of thought that emphasizes the unity of all things and the interconnectedness of the universe. He also discusses Swedenborg’s influence on later thinkers, including William Blake, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Henry David Thoreau.Overall, Swedenborg, A Hermetic Philosopher offers a comprehensive and insightful look at one of the most fascinating and enigmatic figures in the history of philosophy and mysticism. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of esoteric thought and the evolution of spiritual ideas in the modern world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
