Anthroposophy in Germany. A Century (and Two Centuries) Ago – Rudolf Steiner and F. W. J. Schelling
Abstract
Although Rudolf Steiner’s thinking is deeply rooted in the philosophy of German Idealism and in various respects understands itself as a continuation or transformation of the impulses expressed in this tradition, this aspect has received little attention in Steiner research to date. While only the very first attempts at systematic research into the significance of Kant, Fichte and Hegel for Steiner have been made, there are virtually no significant analyses of the relationship between the founder of anthroposophy and F. W. J. Schelling. This essay therefore aims to outline the various aspects and dimensions of Steiner’s spiritual affinity with the philosopher of Leonberg and thus encourage further research in this area.
