"A new edition of Swedenborg: An Introduction to His Life and Ideas has just come out in the US. In an interview with me in the New York Times, Mark Oppenheimer said I had joined ???a long line of philosophers and writers, including Kant and Baudelaire, intrigued by Swedenborg???s difficult, voluminous corpus.??? That I could join Kant and Baudelaire in anything is fine with me." . . . . .
