Moreover, he explains in detail how human archetypal consciousness was gradually lost, giving way to newfound, subjective experience of those faculties, which in turn opens possibilities for human freedom. His overarching theme of the \"evolution of consciousness\" is grand in sweep, while Steiner shows himself to be a master of telling details. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLectures\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Origin of Dramatic Art in European Cultural Life and the Mystery of Eleusis\u003cbr\u003eThe Living Reality of the Spiritual World in Greek Mythology and The Threefold Hecate\u003cbr\u003eNature and Spirit\u003cbr\u003eThe Entry of the Christ Impulse into Human Evolution and the Activity of the Planetary Gods\u003cbr\u003eThe Merging of the Ancient Hebrew and the Greek Currents in the Christ-Stream\u003cbr\u003eThe Ego-Nature and the Human Form\u003cbr\u003eThe Dionysian Mysteries\u003cbr\u003eEagle, Bull, and Lion Currents, Sphinx and Dove\u003cbr\u003eThe Two Poles of All Soul Ordeals\u003cbr\u003eOn Goethe's Birthday\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe freshly revised text features an introduction, notes, color images, an index, and appendices by Prof. Frederick Amrine.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis volume is a translation from German of \u003cem\u003eWeltenwunder, Seelenpr fungen und Geistesoffenbarungen\u003c\/em\u003e (Rudolf Steiner Verlag, 1995, vol. 129).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rudolf Steiner Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/10\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781855845817\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 286","brand":"Rudolf Steiner","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":40942015447221,"sku":"9781855845817","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_e8f4b37d-cf07-435f-9f21-95f24bb55377.jpg?v=1630995416","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/wonders-of-the-world-cw-129-trials-of-the-soul-revelations-of-the-spirit-9781855845817","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
