Christianity As Mystical Fact


Compiled by
Paul M. Allen

Readers of the works of Rudolf Steiner frequently wish to trace his handling of specific themes as these appear in his written books and the published transcripts of his nearly 6,000 lectures. As an aid to this method of study, a method Steiner himself recommended, leading themes of Christianity as Mystical Fact are here traced to other places in books and lectures of Rudolf Steiner as these have appeared in English translation. It is hoped that these references, highly selective as they necessarily are, and by no means exhaustive, will encourage readers in a further study of his ideas regarding the Deed of Christ, the pre-Christian Mysteries, and on the religious strivings of mankind as a whole. In the list which follows, the themes are given in the order in which they appear in the book.

The form of the present reference guide is based on the compiler's book, The Writings and Lectures of Rudolf Steiner, a Chronological Bibliography of his Books, Lectures, Addresses, Courses, Cycles, Essays and Reports as published in English translation, New York, 1956. Copies of this work can be obtained through the publishers of the present book.
