Inhaltsangabe

Written thesis, 1891; published in 1892 by Herman Weissbach, Weimar (CW 3)

This work, essentially Rudolf Steiner's doctoral dissertation, subtitled "Introduction to the Philosophy of Freedom," is just that--an essential work in the foundations of spiritual science. In it, the epistemological foundations of spiritual knowledge are clearly and logically presented.

Originally published with The Philosophy of Freedom in a single volume, this work is fundamental to an understanding of that work (Intuitive Thinking as a Spiritual Path) and to a more complete comprehension of the philosophical basis of Steiner's spiritual science.

This book is essential reading for all serious students of Anthroposophy.

Truth and Knowledge is a translation from German of Wahrheit und Wissenschaft (GA 3).

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Rudolf Steiner (b. Rudolf Joseph Lorenz 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. Steiner termed his spiritual philosophy anthroposophy, meaning "wisdom of the human being." As an exceptionally developed seer, he based his work on direct knowledge and perception of spiritual dimensions. He initiated a modern, universal "spiritual science" that is accessible to anyone willing to exercise clear and unbiased thinking. From his spiritual investigations, Steiner provided suggestions for the renewal of numerous activities, including education (general and for special needs), agriculture, medicine, economics, architecture, science, philosophy, Christianity, and the arts. There are currently thousands of schools, clinics, farms, and initiatives in other fields that involve practical work based on the principles Steiner developed. His many published works feature his research into the spiritual nature of human beings, the evolution of the world and humanity, and methods for personal development. He wrote some thirty books and delivered more than six thousand lectures throughout much of Europe. In 1924, Steiner founded the General Anthroposophical Society, which today has branches around the world.
