Haec est translatio: De Commercio Animae et Corporis, per Swedenborg, Emanuel.
Interpretatio in English
Descriptio:
How do the spiritual and natural worlds interact? How does the soul interact with the body? This was an interesting question in Swedenborg's time (and it still is), and he became one of the top neuroscientists of his day as he explored it. In this short work he presents an explanation, primarily from a theological perspective, but informed by his study of the brain.
De hac translatione:
How does the soul interact with the body? Swedenborg was a theologian, AND one of the leading neuroscientists of his day. Here's what he had to say about it.

De: A new translation by John Elliott, featuring both Latin and English texts.

Written in response to Descartes and Christian Wolff, Swedenborg outlines his own views on this subject and how they differ from the philosophical ideas of his day. Dual language edition with newly edited Latin text of De Commercio Animae et Corporis (1769) and a facing page English translation, Regarding the Interaction of Soul and Body. Edited and translated by John Elliott with his Preface and an Introduction by Paul Vickers.
