<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Provides a deeper understanding of Rudolf Steiner's Michael Letters.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Towards the end of his life, Rudolf Steiner published a series of weekly letters addressed to the members of the Anthroposophical Society. Among them were fourteen letters in which he described the mission of the Archangel Michael, the mighty spiritual being who has accompanied humanity's evolution from primordial times right down to the present day.</p> <p>In this insightful book, Charles Kovacs draws on his knowledge of Steiner's work to provide a deeper understanding of the history and ideas that inform each letter. He shows how the Archangel Michael is the great champion of human freedom in the modern age and how he can help us transcend divisions of national identity to embrace a truly universal view of humanity.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'Steiner always asks us deliberately to make an effort to create imaginations from given words, be they on paper or through spoken word. Where Steiner is scientific, Kovacs tells stories. Thanks to his wonderful calm and sure way of leading us through what are fundamental and essential concepts, this effort is made a little easier for us. From clear ideas to imaginative pictures, from difficult-to-grasp spiritual facts to primeval fairy tale images, Kovacs helps us make sense of these in the context of human development and thus weaves a bridge between the known familiar and the cosmic truths hidden behind them...'<br /> - Perspectives</p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Charles Kovacs (1907--2001) was born in Austria.
