Art in the Light of Mystery Wisdom [ Edit ] Reviews(0) by: Rudolf Steiner Forward by Marie Steiner (8 lectures: Dornach, Dec. 1914 - Jan. 1915; GA 275)
In the ancient holy Mysteries, science, art and religion formed a unity that offered nourishment to the various cultural periods of humanity's past. Today these aspects of life can again be united through spiritual knowledge.
However, as Marie Steiner indicates in her introduction, science, art ,and religion all require new understanding and rejuvenation. Art cannot be renewed through compromise with its decadent manifestations — it will be renewed only by returning to the spiritual springs of life.
As she says: The remedy lies in unlocking the wisdom of the Mysteries and presenting it to humanity in a form adapted to contemporary needs. In these wide-ranging lectures, Steiner offers spiritual modern insight into the world of the arts.
His themes include: the relation of art to technology the moral experience of the worlds of color and music the legendary Norwegian Dream Song of Olaf Åsteson the relationship between the various arts of architecture, sculpture, painting, music, poetry and eurythmy and the aspects of the human being.
