Four Mystery Plays by Rudolf Steiner
"Four Mystery Plays" by Rudolf Steiner is a series of dramas written between 1910-1913. These modern mystery plays follow the spiritual journeys of interconnected characters across multiple lifetimes, exploring themes of initiation, karma, and reincarnation. Inspired by Goethe's "Tale of the Green Snake and the Beautiful Lily," the plays dramatize how spiritual development unfolds within a group bound by karmic destiny. For the first time in dramatic poetry, Steiner presents fate's driving
forces through the lens of past-life entanglements, offering a unique theatrical exploration of consciousness and human destiny. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
