Egyptian Myths and Mysteries
GA 106
![]()
This series of lectures was given by Rudolf Steiner at the Leipzig branch of what was then the German Section of the Theosophical Society; all members were invited.
Since the Leipzig branch was headed by Elise Wolfram, who was particularly interested in mythology, gave lectures herself, and published writings, it can be assumed that she had requested the topic. However, a lecture series with a similar title had already taken place four weeks earlier in Stuttgart: “World, Earth, and Man, Their Nature and Development, and Their Reflection in Egyptian Mythology and Contemporary Culture” (GA 105), about whose origins nothing more is known.
Both series had been announced in No. VII (September 1908) of the Newsletter for Members of the German Section of the Theosophical Society (Headquarters in Adyar).
