Index - Angelic Wisdom Concerning Marriage - 2 (Whitehead)


This is a translation of: Index Operis Sapientia Angelica de Conjugio (2), by Swedenborg, Emanuel

The original work was not published by its author.

Translated into English


Description:

Swedenborg made two indices as he prepared and wrote a manuscript (not extant), referred to elsewhere as "Sapientia Angelica de Conjugio", which itself seems to have been a draft for his subsequent published work on marriage, "De Amore Conjugiali." This index (2 of 2) is the longer, more detailed, and probably later one of the two. There is also a related manuscript, De Conjugio, which includes much of the same material. The editors have added cross-references to the sections in "De Amore Conjugiali" where the indexed subjects are clearly discussed.

About this translation:

This index (2) is a more detailed version of "Marriage Index 1". Both were for a now-missing draft of Swedenborg's work on marriage, "Conjugial Love".

Date of creation: 1914

About: Swedenborg compiled a two-part index to a manuscript that he wrote, probably as a draft for his published work, "De Amore Conjugialis", which has been translated "Conjugial Love", or "Marriage Love". That manuscript has not been found, but the two parts of the index exist, and they have been translated from Latin into English by John Whitehead. Swedenborg numbered the short paragraphs in his manuscript, some 2050 in all. These paragraphs are referred to in the index, as, for example (75). John Whitehead's edition added references to the published paragraphs in "Conjugial Love" whose text is most closely related to the topics in the index. This and the following sections form part 2 of 2 of Index to "Angelic Wisdom Concerning Marriage".
