Rudolf Steiner, Fragment of a Spiritual Biography
“Underlying all of Sergei O. Prokofieff’s many and diverse publications was a basic research theme to which he wanted to devote a large-scale project: the individuality of Rudolf Steiner through all of the incarnations that he himself specified. It is not intended to be a biography in the ordinary sense but to encompass spiritual dimensions that can be discerned through spiritual science. It ...Qty

Kaspar Hauser, Child of Europe
“From time to time in the history of humanity, extraordinary individualities appear, carrying with them great tasks which are difficult to assess.

Look at What We Can Become

The author relates fond remembrances of five departed souls in deeply personal portraits that are nevertheless meaningful even for those who have never heard of these people who chose a life of service.

Rudolf Steiner, Life and Work
“All this must be accepted as destiny [karma]. It would be sentimental to enlarge on how much it pains me to be separated physically from the Goetheanum and its activities.

In volume 6 of his seven-volume biography of Rudolf Steiner, Peter Selg focuses on ...Qty
Pythagoras, the Master
Pythagoras was one of the great geniuses of the West and yet, apart from his famous Pythagorean theorem, he is virtually unknown. If we rely on modern scholars and academics we find that his long-forgotten legacy is misunderstood and even distorted, and is therefore almost nonexistent. This new and provocative work from Carol Dunn (author of Plato’s Dialogues: Path to Initiation) accomplishes ...Qty
