SWEDENBORG DEVELOPS HIS OWN THEORY

by William Ross Woofenden
It was noted earlier that with the publication of his Principia (1734), Swedenborg's reputation as a scientist and natural philosopher was established in Europe. The work is a lengthy one, and the writing style leans toward the ornate. The first chapter, which runs to some fifty pages in English translation, is titled, perhaps a bit pompously, "The Means Leading to True Philosophy, and the True Philosopher." As might be expected, however, the chapter does state in full detail the presuppositions concerning causality held by the author at this time.
