These lectures are concerned with spiritual forces and influences working in world history and in the karma of human beings. Steiner's penetrating insights into the events and personalities history are one of his major contributions to modern times.

Steiner's focus here is on the Babylonian and Greek cultures and the threads that run between individual personalities—Plato, Copernicus, Raphael, and Galileo—and the evolution of humanity as a whole. He shows the inadequacy of viewing history in only a chronolical, temporal sense, and the fital need to recognize the deeper meaning of the historical events revealed in myths and the spiritual impulses behind them.
