Early in the twentieth century Rudolf Steiner, the founder of Anthroposophy, gave a series of lectures concerniing what he called "The Fifth Gospel", essentially but not exclusivrely covering the years between Jesus's twelfth and thirtieth years -- those not covered in the four "official" gospels. Volume One consists of the five lectures he gave in Oslo, Norway in 1913. Subsequent volumes, once translated, will cover the talks he gave in other cities.
