Synopsis:

The ten lectures in this book were delivered by Steiner in Oslo, Norway, between November 24 and December 4, 1921. Today, their content is still valid and the world situation even more desparate and in need of a change in keeping with the spiritual-scientific knowledge contained in them. The necessity for the development of a Consciousness of the Self as the spiritual essence of the free, individualistic, single-personality Human Being was one of Steiner's unique contributions to the evolving history of mankind. This book is another milestone on that path.

About the Author: Rudolf Steiner (1861–1925) was born in the small village of Kraljevec, Austro-Hungarian Empire (now in Croatia), where he grew up. As a young man, he lived in Weimar and Berlin, where he became a well-published scientific, literary, and philosophical scholar, known especially for his work with Goethe’s scientific writings. At the beginning of the twentieth century, he began to develop his early philosophical principles into an approach to systematic research into psychological and spiritual phenomena. Formally beginning his spiritual teaching career under the auspices of the Theosophical Society, Steiner came to use the term Anthroposophy (and spiritual science) for his philosophy, spiritual research, and findings. The influence of Steiner’s multifaceted genius has led to innovative and holistic approaches in medicine, various therapies, philosophy, religious renewal, Waldorf education, education for special needs, threefold economics, biodynamic agriculture, Goethean science, architecture, and the arts of drama, speech, and eurythmy. In 1924, Rudolf Steiner founded the General Anthroposophical Society, which today has branches throughout the world. He died in Dornach, Switzerland.
