This early and fundamental lecture cycle gives a review of the entire field of humanities and describes the different training pathways. There are fourteen lectures and two question and answer sessions. They are a good introduction to the ideas and content of anthroposophy. Steiner covers a wide range of topics including the being of man, the three worlds, life after death, karma, the evolutionary epochs, and the path of inner development. This book is an excellent complement to the basic books.
