This little treasure of a book, first published in English in 1984, is
essential reading for anyone who, like the author, aspires to understand
Rudolf Steiner "within the overall process of world history, and so
come to recognize his spiritual mission."
Out of his own deep personal
relationship to both the first Goetheanum and The Christmas Foundation
Meeting, Grosse offers a wide-ranging, detailed, and ultimately helpful
spiritual-historical basis for deepening one's own connection to this
unique, world-historical spiritual impulse.
Includes a detailed,
first-hand account of the ceremonial laying of the foundation stone of
the Goetheanum in September 1913, with a full transcript of Steiner's
words and a reproduction of the document that was sealed inside the
double-dodecahedral stone.
