Swedenborg Foundation Publishers is celebrating 150 years of publishing activity in America, a milestone we have dubbed our "Sesqui", short for Sesquicentennial. You will see a whole new dynamic, honoring both our 150th anniversary and the new millennium, as you examine the books on the following pages. We have our largest, most dynamic publication schedule ever -- 15 titles for 2000, including a number of compelling trade books in our Chrysalis line, treating topics such as partnership as spiritual practice, gardening for spiritual sustenance, and the mystical emergence of a feminist baby-boomer. What else is new at the Swedenborg Foundation in its 150th year? We have begun a momentous, twelve-year project to retranslate Swedenborg's entire corpus, offering a contemporary expression of his thought that provides meaningful access for today's reader. Each volume will contain a contextualizing preface and scholarly annotations. The first two volumes -- Heaven and Hell, and Scribe of Heaven, an introductory volume of scholarly essays on Swedenborg's work and influence -- will be published in the fall of 2000. This translation project is the first to be undertaken with unified standards by a single entity, and we intend it to ignite a renaissance of interest in this brilliant thinker and potent visionary, one of the world's three greatest intellects -- along with Goethe and John Stuart Mill -- according to Stanford University researchers who created a data program to calculate the IQs of history's great minds. Abridgement of Swedenborg's exposition of Revelation, describing personal self-judgment in the spiritual realm.
