Emanuel Swedenborg's Investigations in Natural Science
Author: Martin Ramström
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 62
Book Description
In this book, Martin Ramström explores the contributions of Swedenborg to several branches of the natural sciences. The book is divided into two parts. The first part looks at Swedenborg's Investigations in Natural Science focusing on his mathematical, mechanical, astronomical, geological, mineralogical, chemical, physical, cosmological, anatomical, and physiological investigations. The second part looks at the basis for Swedenborg's statements concerning the functions of the brain by focusing on the centres of the vegetative functions, the centres of the psychical functions, especially the sensory centres, the centres of the motor functions, the doctrine of localizations, and the cerebellular theory with a concluding summary

The Delights of Wisdom Pertaining to Conjugial Love
Author: Emanuel Swedenborg
Publisher: Good Press
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 623
Book Description
The Delights of Wisdom Pertaining to Conjugial Love is a book by Emanuel Swedenborg, a Swedish theologist, scientist, thinker and mystic, here providing a thorough spiritual understanding of marriage love and sex. Excerpt: "Spiritual cold in marriages is a disunion of souls and a disjunction of minds, whence come indifference, discord, contempt, disdain, and aversion; from which, in several cases, at length comes separation as to bed, chamber, and house. That these effects take place with married partners, while their primitive love is on the decline, and becomes cold, is too well known to need any comment. The reason is, because conjugial cold above all others resides in human minds; for the essential conjugial principle is inscribed on the soul, to the end that a soul may be propagated from a soul, and the soul of the father into the offspring. Hence it is that this cold originates there, and successively goes downward into the principles thence derived, and infects them; and thus changes the joys and delights of the primitive love into what is sad and undelightful."

When Geologists Were Historians, 1665–1750
Author: Rhoda Rappaport
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501729616
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 322
Book Description
"An essential perspective for those seeking a serious introduction to early geological science and a fundamental point of departure for future research.... No other book has this scope and conceptual focus."—Kenneth L. Taylor, University of OklahomaIn the years between 1665 and 1750, geology was a new kind of science, combining physical law with historical process. Rhoda Rappaport explains its novelty and provides a transnational account of the development of geological thinking. She begins with the establishment of formal institutions of international exchange, including the Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London and the Journal des savants in Paris, and shows how new media fostered increasing communication among scientists, particularly in England, France, and Italy. Early geological thinking was thoroughly integrated with epistemology, historical and biblical scholarship, natural philosophy, and natural history. Ancient written documents supplemented what was called "physical conjecture," providing human witnesses to past events. How to combine elements of law, empirical observations, and texts posed serious problems in debates about the biblical flood, which Rappaport presents as a prime example of a well-attested historical event. Buffon argued forcefully that geology should be wholly a physical science and that historical texts were irrelevant to the reconstruction of physical processes. Rappaport explains how his contemporaries responded to this novel proposal and how Buffon heralded the end of an era.
