On the Shoulder of Martí

El libro de un vistazo

Wilkinson (Scandinavian and comparative literature, U. of Texas- Austin) traces the reception and popularization of several key doctrines of Swedenborg in French literature and popular culture of the late 18th and 19th centuries. He focuses on the doctrine of correspondences, challenging Foucault's assertion that during that period it was a complete break with representation. Instead, he says, it was related to the taxonomic structures of natural history and part of an effort to understand society in terms of an ordered and controllable totality. Parts of the book have been published as journal articles. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
