Synopsis "The Philosophy of Freedom: The Basis for a Modern World Conception"

Written in 1894 (CW 4)Are we free, whether we know it or not? Is any notion of individual freedom merely an illusion? Steiner tackles these age-old questions in a new and unique way. He shows that, by considering our own activity of thinking, we can realize the reasons for everything we do. And if these reasons are taken from the realm of our ideals, our actions are free, because only we determine them.The question of freedom cannot be settled by philosophical argument. Nor is it simply granted to us. If we want to be free, we must work through our own inner activity to overcome unconscious urges and habitual thinking. To accomplish this, we must reach a point of view that recognizes no limits to knowledge, sees through all illusions, and opens the door to an experience of the reality of the spiritual world. Then we can achieve the highest level of evolution--we will recognize ourselves as free spirits.This volume is a translation of Die Philosophie der Freiheit (GA 4) from German by Michael Wilson.

Rudolf Steiner (Donji Kraljevec, Imperio austrohúngaro, hoy Croacia, 25 o 27 de febrero de 18611​-Dornach, Suiza, 30 de marzo de 1925) fue un filósofo austriaco, erudito literario, educador, artista, autor teatral, pensador social y ocultista. Fue el fundador de la antroposofía, la educación Waldorf, la agricultura biodinámica, la medicina antroposófica5​ y de la nueva forma artística de la euritmia.

Describió la antroposofía como sigue: La antroposofía es un sendero de conocimiento que quisiera conducir lo espiritual en el hombre a lo espiritual en el universo. Pueden ser antropósofos quienes sienten determinadas cuestiones sobre la esencia del hombre y del mundo como una necesidad tan vital como la que se siente cuando tenemos hambre y sed.

Steiner propuso una forma de individualismo ético, al que luego añadió un componente más explícitamente espiritual. Derivó su epistemología de la visión del mundo de Johann Wolfgang Goethe, según la cual el pensamiento es un órgano de percepción al igual que el ojo o el oído. Del mismo modo que el ojo percibe colores y el oído sonidos, así el pensamiento percibe ideas.
