Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772) won fame and infamy as a natural scientist and visionary theosopher, but he was also a master intelligencer, who served as a secret agent for the French king, Louis XV, and the pro-French, pro-Jacobite party of "Hats" in Sweden. This study draws upon unpublished diplomatic and Masonic archives to place his financial and political actitivities within their national and international contexts. It also reveals the clandestine military and Masonic links between the Swedish Hats and Charles Edward Stuart ("Bonnie Prince Charlie"), providing new evidence for the prince's role as hidden Grand Master of the Order of the Temple. Swedenborg's usage of Kabbalistic meditative and interpretative techniques and his association with Hermetic and Rosicrucian adepts reveal the extensive esoteric networks that underlay the exoteric politics of the supposedly "enlightened" eighteenth century, especially in the troubled "Northern World" of Sweden and Scotland.
The first major theological work of the Swedish scientist-turned-seer Emanuel Swedenborg, Secrets of Heaven reveals the unseen realms that await beyond death. In this second of fifteen volumes, Swedenborg discusses the nature of heaven and the perceptions of the spirits that live there. In addition, the work offers a detailed examination of chapters ten through fifteen of Genesis, including the story of the tower of Babel.

Excerpt: ... tact with our intelligence only at the cost of transmuting the absolutely creative relation he bears to the mind, into a phenomenally constitutive relation; that is, at the cost of degrading him from the throne of his infinitude into an abject article, neither more nor less, of the race's mental furniture. XII. I will assume, accordingly, without further parley, that a tracer living knowledge of God is inevitably conditioned upon an authentic revelation of his name. The next question in order is, what is the method of this revelation? How does it actually come about? It must obviously do so in the most gradual manner, since its full accomplishment is contingent upon the advent of a truo society or brotherhood among men upon the earth: the evolution of such society or brotherhood, again, being itself contingent upon a previous experience and exhaustion of the patriarchal, the municipal, and the national or political administration of human affairs. The truth of an absolute society, fellowship, equality among men, as the consummation of our earthly destiny, is indeed the hidden divine leaven which has been fermenting in all history, and even from its rudest beginnings moulding the mind of man into inevitable conformity with itself. But from the nature of the case its operation, during all these initiatory stages of progress, must be purely negative. For until society puts on positive form -- that is, until the truth of man's rightful fellowship or equality with man becomes scientifically demonstrated -- the two elements which go to constitute the social conception of human life are arrayed in inveterate hostility to each other. In all the rudimentary social forms, the family, the city, the nation, an utter enmity exists between the generic...
