Man with a Mission
Description
This life story of Bernard Lievegoed (1905-1992), skillfully crafted by Frans Lutters, uses Lievegoed's own writings to weave a biography that transcends a tale of a single man's tragedies and triumphs.
Those tragedies and triumphs are indeed here, and they are both profound and inspiring.
But there is something else: the entirety of this particular life story sheds a unique light on the whole journey of the twentieth century, from beginning to end, and on to today; in the esoteric significance of our exoteric wars; in the historical development of anthroposophy after Rudolf Steiner's death; and in the still-to-be-fully realized possibilities of developing Rudolf Steiner's spiritual science into a practical, healing, worldwide force for the good.
