Barfield early encountered the work of Rudolf Steiner
and soon recognized the immense contribution that Steiner had made towards a true understanding of the world and of man. The essays in this volume are at once the fruit of his study of Steiner’s work and a new approach to that work from the angle of English literature. They form perhaps the best introduction to Steiner’s work for the English literary mind.
"We are well supplied with interesting writers, but Owen Barfield is not content to be merely interesting. His ambition is to set us free . . . from the prison we have made for ourselves by our ways of knowing, our limited and false habits of thought, our ‘common sense.’" — Saul Bellow, Nobel Laureate
