Dreams of a Spirit-Seer
'Dreams of a Spirit-Seer' Summary
In this book, Kant analyzes the writings of his contemporary, the spiritualist religious philosopher Swedenborg, whose ideas still have a following in present times. Kant argues that Swedenborg's ideas are not based on reason and experience, but rather on imagination and superstition. He also criticizes Swedenborg's claims to have had visions of heaven and hell, arguing that these claims are not supported by evidence.Book Details
