X Comprising Every Known Document by Or ACADEMY COLLECTION of SWEDENBORG DOCUMENTS Volumes I - X Comprising every known Document by or concerning Swedenborg including all available Transcripts and Translations thereof. Bryn Athyn, Pennsylvania 1962 1 F O R E W O R D The ACADEMY COLLECTION OF SWEDENBORG DOCUMENTS (ACSD) is the only fairly complete record of its kind, the result of many years of careful labor. A full historical account of the various Collections which have been made in the past, and which have lead to the present Academy Collection, is to be found in S.O.Sigstedt’s typescript, “A Chronological List,” Bryn Athyn, Pa., 1943. This second edition of the ACADEMY COLLECTION OF SWEDENBORG DOCUMENTS (formerly known as the "Green Books") now consists of ten volumes in place of the former six. It accounts for every document by or concerning Swedenborg known so far, including those published in Tafel's Documents concerning Swedenborg, London 1875-1877. The numbering of the documents and the order in which the information is given - the name of the document, the date, number of pages, the place of origin or present deposit, translations if any – correspond to the numbering and order used in Alfred H. Stroh's typewritten Chronological List, Part III.* The usefulness of this Collection (ACSD) is now greatly increased, e.g.: a) The numbering system has been amended to facilitate future additions. (See Note on p.iii) b) The references to all the photostats owned by the Academy are now brought up to date, as a result of the previously set up Photostat File of the Swedenborg Documents owned by the Academy. c) A great many transcripts have been added from the Academy's Photostat Collection. Credit is here due to Mr. Lennart Alfelt's assistance in handling the more difficult Swedish handwriting, and in transcribing Danish letters. d) A great number of references have been added, e.g. to the Letters and Memorials of Emanuel Swedenborg, Bryn Athyn, Pa., 1948, 1955; the Lindh Documents (see Bibliography at end of vol.X); Swedenborg and his Scientific Reviewers (New Philosophy 1929, 1930-1934, 1945), and to the books contained in the Library of the Academy of the New Church. e) Cross references have been greatly increased throughout the ten volumes. In cases where the Academy does not possess a photostat, transcript, or printed text of the original, a yellow sheet has been used, indicating that the Academy would be glad to receive the document itself or a copy thereof. Loose-leaf binders are used for the material so that new items can be readily inserted. The entire Collection of approximately 3096 items has been microfilmed, and a set of these microfilms has been presented to the Swedenborg Society (Inc.) of London.

Changes to this system from previous ones are made by replacing each symbol with two digits' i.e.,: (Col.1 = present system, col.2 = 1st edition) .00 = -A (for documents prior to no.1) .01 = 1 .02 = 2 .09 = 9 .10 = bis .11 = a (or A) .12 = b .13 - c .14 = d ... .36 a z bis Ex. 138al = 138.110110 3 ABBREVIATIONS AND REFERENCES USED IN THIS COLLECTION AA Dr. Alfred Acton - Notes by ACSD Academy Collection of Swedenborg Documents - contained herein (formerly known as the Green Books) ANC Lib.

  • What Is the Nature of Good Government?
    What is the Nature of Good Government? from Heaven and Hell by Emanuel Swedenborg A Unique Vision of the Afterlife The following pages contain a brief taste of heaven based on the visions of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688–1772), a Swedish sci- entist and mystic. They are taken from his best-known work, Heaven and Hell, orig- inally written and published in 1758 in Latin as De Coelo et Ejus Mirabilibus, et de Inferno, ex Auditis et Visis (Heaven and Its Wonders and Hell, Drawn from Things Heard and Seen). Heaven and Hell is a detailed descrip- tion of the afterlife based on Swedenborg’s personal experiences. The work includes discussions of what happens to us after we die, what it’s like to live in heaven (or in hell), and the nature of God and angels. Now celebrating its 250th anniversary, Heaven and Hell has been in print con- tinuously since its first publication, and it has been translated into twenty-three lan- guages. This translation was produced by George F. Dole for the New Century Edition of the Works of Emanuel Swe- denborg, published by the Swedenborg Foundation. The full translation includes an introduction by noted scholar Bern- hard Lang, extensive notes on the text, and other helpful references. This deluxe edition is available in hardcover and full- sized paperback; there is also a smaller Swedenborg Foundation portable edition without the introduction West Chester, Pennsylvania and endnotes. • www.swedenborg.com Forms of Government in Heaven Since heaven is differentiated into communities, and the larger communities consist of some hundreds of thousands of angels, and since all the people in a given community are involved in similar good but not in similar wisdom, it follows of necessity that there are forms of govern- ment.

Copyright c Helge Kragh, 2012 1 Newtonianism in the Scandinavian Countries, 1690-1790 HELGE KRAGH 1 Introduction In the present context, the Scandinavian countries refer to two national or administrative units, the one being Denmark and the other Sweden. In the period here considered, largely the century from 1690 to 1790, ‘Denmark’ means really Denmark-Norway, for until 1814 Norway was part of the double monarchy ruled by the king and his government in Copenhagen. It should also be kept in mind that parts of what is today Germany, namely Schleswig-Holstein, belonged to the kingdom. However, as far as language and culture were concerned, these parts of southern Denmark were more German than Danish, and they played no important role in the scientific life of the kingdom. Sweden covered a much larger geographical area than it does today. The country had expanded greatly during the seventeenth century, when not only Finland but also parts of the Baltic area and northern Germany came under Swedish rule. About 1720, after the Great Northern War, Sweden lost most of its possessions, but the major part of Finland remained as part of the country until Centre for Science Studies, Department of Physics and Astronomy, Aarhus University, Denmark.

As the country increasingly took on the difficult tasks of constructing harbors, canals, and foundations for roads and railways, novel foundation concepts had to be developed. The establishing of an interdisciplinary “Geotechnical Commission” in 1914 consisting of geologists and civil engineers with the task to study landslides and slope failures laid the foundation for modern geotechnical field and laboratory testing methods and began the key role of geotechnical engineering in Swedish civil engineering. A very important aspect is the spirit of close cooperation between practitioners, engineers, and scientists, manifested in the Swedish Geotechnical Institute and the Swedish Pile Commission. The Swedish geotechnical practice has a long history of important accomplishments by individual engineers.

  • Polhems Huvudvärk David Dunér
    Polhems huvudvärk David Dunér CHRISTOPHER POLHEM HAR BLIVIT MEST KÄND som tekniker och industripionjär, omtalad som ett tekniskt geni, en uppfinnarjocke, den svenska mekanikens fader, Nordens Arkimedes, den hyperboreiske Daidalos. Utmaningen är här att försöka visa att hans verkliga originalitet inte ligger främst i hans tekniska uppfinnarförmåga. En stor del av sin tid använde han nämligen till studier och spekulationer kring geologi, materiateori, nationalekonomi, näringslära, språkvetenskap, filosofi och pedagogik. Hans uppfinningar visar sig i många fall inte vara hans egna. Det är i ännu högre grad som tänkare man finner särlingen. Man skulle kunna kalla honom för en hemmatänka- re som kokade ihop sina egna tankar oberoende av vad andra tyckte och tänkte. Det finns en smittande fräckhet och humor som går utanför alla konventioner. Att tänka, sade han, kunde dock vara lika ansträngande som kroppsrörelser: »när man för myket tenker, blir hiernan öhm och wärkande, så och när man myket tenker på sådhana ting som man aldrig hafft före tillförende, blir hela kroppen matt och machtlöss». Om denna essä inte kan ge övertygande argument för Polhems originalitet, så kan den i vart fall göra läsaren en aning matt och maktlös av alla nya tankar om Polhem som denne inte tidigare har haft. Ett skäl till Polhems okonventionella tänkande kan vara hans oroliga bildnings- gång. Han var i stort sett autodidakt, saknade en grundlig bildning och kunde aldrig lära sig latin ordentligt. Kanske hade han till och med en släng av ordblindhet. Men på sätt och vis kan man se hans liv som lite av en klassisk framgångshistoria. För- utsättningarna var nämligen inte de bästa för en framgångsrik teknisk karriär.

Other references with faunal information for various units and areas in the Livengood quadrangle include Martin (1926), Mertie (1917), Prindle (1908,1913), Prindle and Hess (1906), and Robinson (1983). This report includes all these older data with improved locality information and updated age assignments. Paleozoic and Mesozoic fossils from the Livengood quadrangle are generally poorly preserved because the rocks are tectonicaliy disrupted and sheared locally and have undergone at least lower greenschist fades metamorphism. The oldest recognized fossil, the trace fossil Oldhamia, occurs in olive-green slate of the -GZwg unit, but can only be recognized where cleavage and bedding are parallel, or nearly so.

Which attributes of the models that are transferred and displayed is not an imperative trait of digitisation per se — only of one particular process. The chapter discusses three forms of 3D visualisations of Polhem’s alphabet executed in altered media modalities — provoking a confrontation between stupid scanning versus intelli- gent simulation. Situated at the intersection between digitising archives and visualising history, the chapter interrogates the specificity of digitisation, with the ultimate goal of developing a 3D methodology of relevance for the cultural heritage domain. Authority and material authenticity are its trade- marks. Yet, as this chapter will show, 3D visualisations will always cater ( in one way or the other ) to interpretation of museological objects selected for ( re ) presentation — even if institutions are totally explicit and open about their digital practises.

  • Multiple Independent Inventions of a Non‐Functional Technology Combinatorial Descriptive Names in Botany, 1640‐1830
    PEER‐REVIEWED Multiple Independent Inventions of a Non‐functional Technology Combinatorial Descriptive Names in Botany, 1640‐1830 Sara Scharf* Abstract Historians and sociologists of science usually discuss multiple independent inventions or discoveries in terms of priority disputes over successful inventions or discoveries. But what should we make of the multiple invention of a technology that not only gave rise to very few priority disputes, but never worked and was rejected by each inventor’s contemporaries as soon as it was made public? This paper examines seven such situations in the history of botany.
