Emil Bock lectured widely on Rudolf Steiner after the Second World
War, and during the course of his research he uncovered many
previously unknown aspects of Steiner's life. The Life and Times of
Rudolf Steiner brings together the two volumes of this insightful
work, which were previously available separately, in one
comprehensive book. Part one introduces the great range of people
who surrounded and influenced Steiner. Bock tracked down the
mysterious 'Felix the herb gatherer', from Steiner's youth, and
describes the Viennese social circles and coffee houses frequented
by Steiner in his student days. He also details Steiner's meeting
with Friedrich Nietzsche, and the various literary, artistic and
eccentric people from Steiner's time in Berlin. Part two reveals
some of the themes and ideas in Steiner's work - the early years of
Jesus, the Christmas festival and the break from the Theosophical
Society to the Anthroposophical Society - as well as exploring the
nature of destiny. Bock also examines the circle of people around
Steiner at this time and, using Steiner's ideas on karma and
reincarnation, draws interesting parallels with Rome, Byzantium,
Ephesus and the Grail Castle.
