Speaking during the early stages of the First World War with the Western Front just miles away and thousands of young men dying Rudolf Steiner focuses on the subject of death. In particular, he addresses the difficult question of why some people die prematurely, particularly in youth. Steiner also speaks of the deaths of three of his acquaintances, having made contact with their living souls in the afterlife. He voices their own words and describes the first stages of their journeys after death.Rudolf Steiner strikes a second chord with the description of the task of Central Europe in the context of the various Folk-souls. The influences of these spiritual entities are reflected in the culture and life of various peoples, but do not promote nationalism. In fact, nationalism can only be transcended when we understand and recognize our differences. This approach is based on phenomenology rather than value-judgements. The third main theme running through these lectures relates to understanding the impulses and connections active in history. Reaching beyond simple notions of fate, are we able to allow for the workings of the impulse of Christ?These extraordinary lectures, previously unpublished in English, are presented here with an introduction, notes and an index.Fifteen lectures, various cities, Jan.Jun. 1915, GA 159

In a previously-unavailable series of talks to the general public, Rudolf Steiner builds systematically, lecture by lecture, on the fundamentals of spiritual science from the nature of spiritual knowledge and its relationship to conventional science, the path of personal development and the task of metaphysical research, to specific questions on the mystery of death, the meaning of fairy-tales, the significance of morality and the roles of individual figures in human evolution, such as Leonardo da Vinci, Raphael and Jacob Boehme.At the time of these presentations, Steiner had already worked in Berlin for many years, and thus, could reckon with a regularly returning audience to whom what mattered was to enter ever more deeply into the areas of knowledge that were newly opening up to them (Marie Steiner). As a consequence and through a series of inter-connecting lectures whose themes are entwined with one another he was able to communicate a coherent and challenging spiritual perception of reality, based on his personal research.Presented here with notes, an index and an introduction by Simon Blaxland-de Lange, the 14 lectures include: How is Spiritual Science Refuted?; On What Foundation is Spiritual Science Based; The Tasks of Spiritual Research for both Present and Future; Errors of Spiritual Research; Results of Spiritual Research for Vital Questions and the Riddle of Death; The World-Conception of a Cultural Researcher of the Present, Herman Grimm and The Legacy of the Nineteenth Century.

An awe-inspiring and panoramic investigation into the hidden world of the deep sea - a mysterious, unforgiving landscape whose secrets radically revise our understanding of life on earth.The deep sea is one of humanitys last frontiers. For most of our history it has been a remote realm shrouded in obscurity. But here, where the light cannot reach, lies a strange, wonderful and breathtaking portal into Earths past, teeming with scientific marvels and lessons for the future of life on this planet.In The Dark Frontier, marine microbiologist and deep-sea explorer Jeffrey Marlow plunges us into the oceans depths and invites us to witness close-up encounters with its hidden brilliance. Translucent shrimp dance through sulphureous vents, crabs stretch twelve feet from claw to claw and the eerie chalk-white towers of the Lost City loom. Back on land, diplomats and conservationists negotiate the management of the vast open ocean, as human forces threaten ancient underwater ecosystems. Immersive and illuminating, Marlows journeys heed warnings too: we are irrevocably changing the deep sea before we have even had a chance to understand it.This expansive book offers crucial and surprising insights into the twinned forces of exploration and exploitation in the deep sea. It shows how life can thrive in even the most extreme conditions, and how new ways of engaging with the oceans depths are revealing critical links between the deep sea and life on land. The Dark Frontier expands our understanding of biological possibilities - and our responsibilities - on Earth and beyond.

Who was Kaspar Hauser and where did he come from? Why did he spend his childhood in a prison cell? Was he related to nobility, royalty or even Napoleon, as some have concluded?From his appearance on the streets of Nuremberg in 1828 to his disturbing murder only five years later, the enigmatic story of Kaspar Hauser has stirred feelings of love and admiration in countless people. He has been celebrated as the subject of films and plays, popular books and academic studies, yet even today almost two hundred years after his death he continues to arouse opposition and hatred from his detractors, who dismiss him as an opportunist and a fraud.In the first English-language edition of this classic text the original, comprehensive attempt to illumine the mysterious life of Kaspar Hauser from a spiritual-scientific, anthroposophical perspective historian Karl Heyer gathers the basic facts of the life and death of the Child of Europe, exploring his remarkable abilities and character. With impressive clarity, he goes on to study Hausers fate in relation to the mission and destiny of Middle Europe, focusing on the roles of the House of Baden and key political actors such as Napoleon and Otto von Bismarck. His original research leads to some shattering conclusions with significant consequences for Europes future.Heyer was initially drawn to the subject through a private conversation with Rudolf Steiner. That seed matured forty years later into intensive research and the first publication of this book in German in 1958. For me, said Heyer, it represented the high point of my writing and a kind of crowning of my lifes work.

With the unprecedented global conflict of the First World War as an overarching theme, Rudolf Steiner addresses timeless issues such as the search for harmony between peoples and nations, the development of the human capacity for love, the contemporary presence of Christ, and the questions of reincarnation and life after death. Speaking in the German city of Stuttgart during and after the war years, Steiner discusses the perpetual tension between East and West particularly in relation to Europe. The war, he says, arose principally out of the Anglo-Saxon peoples determination to exercise world-domination. Knowing that Slavic culture is destined to be the precursor of the sixth cultural epoch, Western national interests resolved to make Eastern Europe specifically Russia the field for socialist experiments. These events were aggravated by the failure of the Central European peoples in their own world-historical task, to rise to a broad sense of vision as intermediaries between the two groups. Throughout, Steiner refers to the work of individual Folk Souls, but distinguishes them from the scourge of nationalism especially when it is based on blood whilst emphasizing the sovereignty of the individual human being. Although more than a century old, the enduring themes of these previously-untranslated lectures will resonate with many readers today. The main text is supplemented with an introduction by Simon Blaxland-de Lange, editorial notes and an index. Sixteen lectures, Stuttgart, Sept. 1914March 1921, GA 174b

El eneagrama no es una teoría nueva, pues es fruto de una sabiduría milenaria; tampoco es una filosofía de la vida ni ofrece salvación eterna ni da a conocer el camino de la felicidad. Algunos se sentiran atraidos porque la palabra eneagrama tiene connotaciones esotericas, suena a ciencia oculta, a magia, a religion, a misterio por descubrir, y el grafico que lo representa tal vez parecera fruto de un imaginativo diseño; en realidad su significado es simple: es un dibujo o figura geometrica de nueve puntos, de nueve lineas. Y no hay ninguna secta ni hermandad que lleve ese nombre ni ningun dogma ni confesion religiosa que adopte este simbolo como bandera. ¿Que es o que representa, asi pues, el eneagrama para que cada vez mas se oiga hablar de esta figura y se publiquen mas libros? Tras la sencilla representacion grafica, el eneagrama viene a ser como la llave que permite adquirir el conocimiento profundo de uno mismo y de los demas, de las relaciones que rigen entre los hombres y entre estos y el mundo.

In the case of a solar eclipse, the evil that has spread over the earth can be carried out into the cosmos to wreak more havoc there, whereas in the case of a lunar eclipse, people who absolutely want to be possessed by evil thoughts can receive them from the cosmos.In the first full translation of this lecture course, Rudolf Steiner implores his audience to recognize the connections between the material and spiritual worlds. Eclipses of the sun and moon, for example, are forces at work in the universe, just like those we study today in the clinic or in the chemistry or physics laboratory. Even everyday thinking can have a strong impact on the outer world. Materialistic thought, he says, can quite literally atomize our surroundings: if all human beings start to think that everything has to be explained in terms of atoms then the earth will actually turn into atoms these false ideas create false realitiesSteiner speaks of the world of will as being three-dimensional, the world of feeling as two-dimensional, and the world of thinking as one-dimensional. The ego itself is dimensionless, and only inner, living thinking can grasp the spiritual-mental. He discusses key cultural figures such as Friedrich Nietzsche, Herman Grimm and Julian the Apostate, and introduces multiple additional topics, including the effect of planetary forces on humans; the healing impacts of metals and other substances; the revitalization of thinking through meditation and concentration; the effects of the separation of science, art and religion; and the necessary transition from philosophy to anthroposophy.Thirteen lectures, Dornach, Jun.Jul. 1922, GA 213

Speaking just months after the end of the First World War, Rudolf Steiner urges his audience to awaken to the practical relevance of spiritual knowledge. Serious engagement with contemporary spiritual-scientific concepts can awaken healthy forces of the will, which in turn facilitate constructive action in the outer world. Conversely, ideas that are remnants of a previous age echoed in empty phrases and dogmas only hinder our ability to think with the consciousness demanded by the times, destroying the potential for true social initiative. The historical context of these lectures was indeed disastrous, with inflation, hunger, homelessness and political extremism all rife. But Steiner advises that social conditions will only get worse if people dont engage with modern spiritual impulses. Thus in contrast to the backward phenomenon of nationalism and the contemporary caricature of democracy he introduces the future-oriented concept of social threefolding. He discusses manifold challenges, such as the decline of the West and the outmoded spiritual impulses of Jesuitism and Freemasonry but also the positive path for an ascent of Western societies, genuine spiritual medicine, the true message of Easter, and the victory of the Archangel Michael. In several lectures, Rudolf Steiner speaks in some detail about the role and structure of the Catholic Church, the historical use of encyclicals and the doctrine of Papal Infallibility. The first full translation of this course features an introduction by Dorothy Hinkle-Uhlig, notes and an index.Seventeen lectures, Dornach, Mar.Jul. 1920, GA 198

Knowledge of the cosmic significance of Christ and his mission, once experienced intuitively, has faded over the centuries. As theologians and historians of the Church critically scrutinized the Gospel records, their focus shifted from a gnostic vision of Christ to the human figure of the simple man, Jesus of Nazareth.In these enlightening lectures, Rudolf Steiner shows how the Mystery of Golgotha (his term for the Crucifixion and Resurrection of Christ) can be understood as the pivotal event in human history, and the Gospels as initiation documents that can serve to guide us on a path of spiritual development. He contrasts elements of the religious thinking of Jesuitism with Rosicrucianism particularly in relation to the effect on human will and discusses the characteristics of the two Jesus children in the contrasting accounts by Luke and Matthew. Steiner demonstrates how the great religious traditions of Zarathustra and Buddha helped prepare the way for the events of Palestine. In the process he clarifies controversial topics in Christian theology, such as the resurrection of the physical body of Jesus Christ.The emphasis throughout these lectures is on rediscovering the esoteric path to Christ and awakening to a new revelation manifesting in our time: Christ as the Lord of Karma. This edition features a revised translation and is complemented with editorial notes and appendices by Frederick Amrine and an introduction by Robert McDermott.Eleven lectures, Karlsruhe, Oct. 1911, GA 133
