Several of the short Latin treatises published simultaneously with the
Prodromus had previously appeared in Sweden in the Swedish language, and
were in their Latin dress reproductions and extensions of the Swedish
originals. (See the Chronological List, Stockholm, 1910, which will appear in
extended form in the Appendix to Vol. I. of this series and will contain not
only references to all printed editions of Swedenborgs texts, but also to the
numerous facsimile reproductions of MSS. published at Stockholm, 1869—70,
and subsequently.)

The manuscript of De Causis Rerum is preserved in the »Benzelius
Collec-tion* of the Linköping Diocesan Library, Codex 14 A, No. 30, and in the same
volume No. 43 is preserved the manuscript of Om eldens ocli fergornas natur.

The manuscript of the Discours emellan Meclianiguen och Chymien om
naturens icäsende is preserved in the Royal Library, Stockholm, among the
manu-scripts of Polhem, where it was found by the editor in 1903.

The manuscript of Philosophia corpuscularis in compendio is contained in
Swedenborg’s MS., Codex 57, preserved in the Library of the Royal Swedish
Academy of Sciences, Stockholm.

The manuscript of En ny theorie om jordens afstannande is preserved in the
»Benzelius Collection» of the Linköping Diocesan Library, Codex 14 A, No. 34.

The manuscript of En ny mening om jordens och planeternas Gång och Stånd
eller några Beivis at jorden löper alt sachtare och sachtare: at winter och sommar,
dagar och dygn til tiden blifwa lengre och lengre in til werldsens sista tid, is in the
possession of Jarl Ernberg, Esq., Stockholm, and has been in his family
for many years, having originally come into its possession through Secretary
Von Kocken, an official of the time of Charles XII.

The little Swedish work J. N. D: Om jordenes och planeternas Gång

och Stånd: thet är några Bewisliga skiäl at Jorden aftager i sitt lopp och nu

går långsammare än tillförene: giörande winter och sommar, dagar och nätter lengre

i anseende till tiden nu än förr, appeared at Skara in 1718 and is evidently the
final form in which Swedenborg produced his work on the »Earth and Planets»,
the two manuscript preparations for which are printed on pages 269.—298.

In conclusion, the attention of the reader is especially directed to the

Appendix to Vol. I. of this series in which the revised Chronological List of
Sivedenborg’s Works is to appear, together with other information respecting
the manuscripts and printed works of Swedenborg. In the final volume
of the series the Notae Criticae for the texts and other critical matter will
appear, together with an Index.
