Summary

‘What was important for Steiner was less the body of his ideas themselves than the transformation they can bring about in the reader by opening the mind to the real nature of the spiritual world.

About The Author

Richard Seddon

RICHARD SEDDON studied Moral Sciences (Philosophy, Ethics, Logic and Psychology) under Bertrand Russell and John Wisdom - the advocate and colleague of Ludwig Wittgenstein - at Cambridge. This training gave him confidence in his conviction that Rudolf Steiner’s resolution of the main problems of philosophy since Aristotle was correct. After half a century’s subsequent work in anthroposophy he felt the need for an introductory volume setting out Steiner’s own views clearly, without the complications arising from the context of philosophy at the end of the nineteenth century. This book is the result, intended both for students of anthroposophy who have no knowledge of philosophy and for students of philosophy who have no knowledge of anthroposophy.
