A History of the Swedenborg Society 1810-2010
The Swedenborg Society was founded in London ... [in] 1810 to translate, publish and sell the works of Emanuel Swedenborg (1688-1772). This book tells the story of how a society founded with just forty members grew into a body with nearly one thousand members worldwide, continuously commissioning new translations over the years and thus keeping Swedenborg's works in print and ideas alive. It is also the story of the men and women who founded the Society and who sustained it over two centuries. -- Book jacket.
