En savoir plus sur le livre

The book delves into the evolution of the concept of heaven, particularly focusing on the modern interpretation that emphasizes reunions with friends and family. It highlights the contributions of influential figures like John Bunyan, Emanuel Swedenborg, and William Blake, who shaped this vision during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. This modern perspective prioritizes ongoing earthly relationships and passions, contrasting sharply with earlier, more God-centered views of heaven that depicted it as a solitary existence devoted to divine contemplation.
