Mysticism at the Dawn of the Modern Age

This book deals with the impact of modern scientific thinking on our spiritual experiences, and the conflict between reason and revelation. He looks at how eleven European mystics resolved the dichotomy between their inner spiritual perceptions and individual freedom, and the age of invention and discovery then coming to birth. It was translated by Karl E. Zimmer, and originally publish in 1980.

Eleven European Mystics

This book is the fruit of Steiner's lecturing activity. The substance of it was contained in a series of lectures he gave in Berlin beginning just after Michaelmas in 1900, when he was thirty-nine. Steiner later wrote, “By means of the ideas of the mystics from Meister Eckhart to Jacob Boehme, I found expression for the spiritual perceptions which, in reality, I decided to set forth. I then summarized the series of lectures in the book, Mysticism at the Dawn of the Modern Age.”
