Edmund Jones (1702-1793) was a Calvinist Independent Minister, born at Penllwyn in Monmouthshire. He wrote several works on doctrine, as well as three collections of material on apparitions, of which A Relation of Apparitions (1780) is the third. His work reacts against the excesses of 18th-century empiricist thought by asserting a biblical view of the transcendent nature of reality. A Relation of Apparitions is a repository of supernatural folklore which shows how the 18th century viewed both the spirit world and the question of belief. This is a modernized, edited and re-organized version of Jones's text, including a transcript of further holograph material, as well as a detailed editor's introduction.
