Earths In Our Solar System Which Are Called Planets, and Earths In The Starry Heaven Their Inhabitants, And The Spirits And Angels There

Emanuel Swedenborg (born Emanuel Swedberg) was a Swedish scientist, inventor and philosopher, mostly remembered for his work Heaven and Hell. At age 53, during his 'spiritual awakening', Swedenborg, having experienced various ambiguous dreams, believed to become God's messenger and wrote his first theological work The Heavenly Doctrine. Untill his death in 1722 he worked on eighteen then published and several more unpublished books on religious issues; those influenced a number of well-known writers such as Honore de Balzac, Ralph Waldo Emerson and William Butler Yeats.
