A very brief introduction to "The Fairytale of the Green Snake & Beautiful Lily" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe -- a text that greatly inspired Rudolf Steiner and which Steiner called the "germinal seed" of the anthroposophical movement.
This video was made for the Applied Anthroposophy study group (an initiative of the Anthroposophical Society in America) to assist with their study of the Goethe Fairytale. The group read my recent translation of the Fairytale at an online event on March 29, 2023. Interested readers can find my translation of the Goethe Fairytale on Amazon.
"The anthroposophical movement came into existence through Goethe . . . "
-- Rudolf Steiner, September 25, 1920
This video arises from the work of the Section for the Literary Arts and Humanities of the School for Spiritual Science in North America. The Section studied the Fairytale in 2020 and 2021. TheLiteraryArts.com
