簡介 |
“An Outline of Esoteric Science is Rudolf Steiner’s most
complete and methodical presentation of the results of his
own spiritual research. Written in 1909, when he was forty-eight
years old, it represents his mature thinking, yet also has the
careful structure and development characteristic of the work
of young authors. The title points out that the subject of the
book is just those realities and beings which are, at least
initially, hidden from most of us. But at the same time, it
makes explicit that this is not collection of ‘tales of the
supernatural,’ but a clear, conceptual, thoroughly scientific
account of these matters” (Clopper Almon).
With the commentary in A Study Companion keyed by
paragraph number to the text of An Outline of Esoteric Science,
Clopper Almon takes the reader systematically through one
of Rudolf Steiner’s most difficult texts. Each chapter is
considered for themes, or brief summaries of the main points,
review questions, discussion questions, and Almon’s own
observations of the text
This study companion will be a great help to readers of every
level, vastly enriching their reading of one of Steiner’s most
important written works.
