description: In the introduction to this 1986 edition, Wilson Van Dusen makes the following “To begin with, this Journal of Dreams was obviously not intended for publication. We are privileged to see a very personal journal . . . Because Swedenborg did no actually invite us to see this, we should treat this material with some respect. We are privileged to see here what is probably the oldest and longest series of dreams available in any language . . . For those who really want to understand spiritual development we could not have a more fortuitous kind of material. The Journal was written just when Swedenborg, the scientist, was changing to become the religious seer. p. xv).” In this edition we have Swedenborg’s journal uninterrupted by commentary or interpretation. Includes prefaces to this and the 1977 edition published by the Swedenborg Foundation, as well as an introduction by Wilson Van Dusen. Index.
