The Moment is Now
The Moment Is Now: Carl Bernhard Wadström's Revolutionary Voice on Human Trafficking and the Abolition of the African Slave Trade is a multidisciplinary effort by leading international scholars to demonstrate the influence that Carl Bernhard Wadström (1746-99) and the leading reformers of his time have had over the years on issues concerning the slave trade, oppression, and racism. As its title makes clear, this book not only offers a glimpse into a significant moment in history but also serves as a call to action and a primer to be used in the here and now. The Moment Is Now is the twenty-second installment in the Swedenborg Studies scholarly series.

Due to their pre-existing availability and overwhelming quantity, government publications have been kept to a minimum.
A Revolution of Feeling
In the 1790s, Britain underwent what the politician Edmund Burke called 'the most important of all revolutions...a revolution in sentiments'. Inspired by the French Revolution, British radicals concocted new political worlds to enshrine healthier, more productive, human emotions and relationships. The Enlightenment's wildest hopes crested in the utopian projects of such optimists - including the young poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge, the philosophers William Godwin and Mary Wollstonecraft, the physician Thomas Beddoes and the first photographer Thomas Wedgwood - who sought to reform sex, education, commerce, politics and medicine by freeing desire from repressive constraints. But by the middle ...
