The Life and Work of Rudolf Steiner with Gary Lachman

Here [Lachman] describes Rudolf Steiner's early work editing the scientific writings of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe as well as his subsequent encounter with the work of Friedrich Nietzsche. Steiner was known as a polymath and lecturer on many topics. Eventually, he was selected to become the head of the German branch of the Theosophical Society. Later, he left Theosophy and formed the Anthroposophical Society -- leading to an enormous burst of creative activity in education, agriculture, architecture, art, theatre, sculpture, and body movement.
