Description: THE Austrian thinker, Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925), needs little introduction and his books are still revered by millions of people around the world. The Philosophy of Freedom is arguably Steiner's greatest work, exploring knowledge and perception in the context of a radical framework of ideas that breaks rank with those of Kant and Fichte. The free spirit, Steiner declares, is the final stage of human development and whilst he concedes that shaping one's conduct in accordance with morality when it is imposed from without is often part of that same development we should not regard it as the absolute standpoint of morality itself. Becoming a free spirit therefore means transcending all social, political, economic and religious norms. In part, Steiner's views on what he describes as Ethical Individualism were influenced by philosophers such as Max Stirner and Friedrich Nietzsche, whilst Steiner himself would later inspire Ernst Jnger's own belief in personal freedom. As Troy Southgate's new book explains, the free spirit - alive and unfettered - is for Steiner a personality that is grounded upon itself to the extent that one is completely autonomous.
