Göttliche und wahre Metaphysica
No prior complete English translation of this text has been found.
Extensive searches across multiple scholarly and library catalogs (including local catalogs, Google Books, Internet Archive, OpenAlex, and the Library of Congress) yielded no evidence of an English translation of John Pordage's 1715 German compendium, 'Divine and True Metaphysics'. While Pordage's 'Theologia Mystica' (1683) exists in English, it is a distinct and significantly shorter work. The 1715 German edition is a separate, expanded compilation, and no complete or partial English translation of this specific text has been identified.

Step beyond the veil of the material world into the 'Sphere of Eternity' with John Pordage, the 17th-century mystic who claimed to witness spiritual dimensions hidden even from the great Jacob Böhme. This text provides a radical metaphysical map of the invisible architecture of the soul, the cosmos, and the 'Divine Chaos,' inviting readers to discover the secret relationship between celestial light and earthly matter.
